Digvijaya said that the courts must grant bail to undertrials, alluding to Kanimozhi and Raja.
New Delhi: Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh on Friday came out batting for a DMK MP Kanimozhi and former telecom minister A Raja, who are in Tihar jail for their role in the 2G spectrum allocation scam.
The congress leader said that the judiciary should take a cue from the Rajat Gupta case in the US and grant bail to undertrials, alluding to Kanimozhi and Raja.
Digvijaya posted a tweet saying, "Good to know Rajat Gupta got bail. Would our Judiciary also take a cue and not keep undertrials in lock-up once they are charge-sheeted."
Earlier, Union Law Minister Salman Khurshid had cautioned that investor sentiment would be hurt if courts ordered arrests of businessperson.
