Senior counsel Ram Jethmalani sought withdrawal of the application moved by Jagan on the ground that he intended to file a modified application for the same.
On July 10, Jagan had moved the apex court seeking bail on the ground that CBI did not have a shred of evidence against him in the illegal assets case.
He had argued that merely being wealthy or in public life does not deprive him of his right to get bail.
In the Special Leave Petition filed through counsel Senthil Jagadeesan, the rebel Congress leader had submitted there was "complete and utter misapplication of the principles governing bail jurisprudence by the high court, leading to deprivation of his right to liberty granted by the Constitution.
"This complete and utter misapplication of the principles governing bail jurisprudence by the high court has led to continuing deprivation of the rights of the petitioner under Article 21 of the Constitution.
"CBI has wholly failed to show a shred of proof to suggest that the petitioner would tamper with evidence or influence witnesses", the petition said.
In fact, the High Court had also ignored the basic fact that for over nine long months and three chargesheets after the registration of the FIR, the petitioner has enjoyed his freedom without any complaint of influencing the more than 150 witnesses listed, the petition said.
On July 4, the High Court had rejected Jagan's bail plea on the ground that he had the propensity to influence witnesses.
