Gupta, against whom a non-bailable arrest warrant (NBW) was issued earlier, appeared before the CBI court today following which it gave these directions to enable the CBI to interrogate him for completion of the investigations.

The accused had submitted his passport and requested for recall of the NBW issued against him which was kept in abeyance till this date.

The judge asked him to again appear before the court on August 28 and said the NBW shall be recalled on the petitioner (Gupta) executing a personal bond of Rs two lakh with two sureties for like sum on or before the date. The court kept the NBW in abeyance till that date.

 

The CBI in the supplementary chargesheet had said Gupta was "absconding" since January and there was no response to notices served on his addresses.
