A special court on Thursday granted the bail plea of suspended Congress MLA Sherman Ali on grounds of condition. Ali has been granted bail in CM Vigilance cell case.
However, the Gauhati High Court on Tuesday rejected the bail plea of the MLA under the case registered against him at Geetanagar and Panbazaar police station. MLA Sherman Ali had been arrested by the CM's Special Vigilance Cell for alleged embezzlement of the MLA fund.
He was produced before the court and was sentenced to 5-day custody under the Special Vigilance Cell. Later, the MLA had been sentenced to judicial custody after the Chief Judicial Magistrate court (CJM) was notified by the vigilance cell that Ali was not needed in their custody any longer.
