Imphal, February 27 2020:
A Single Bench of the High Court of Manipur today granted absolute bail to former Chief Minister Okram Ibobi and two others, in connection with the MDS scam.
The judgment was passed in connection with the anticipatory bail filed by O Ibobi, former Chief Secretary O Nabakishore and former Manipur Development Society Project Director Yambem Ning-them, in connection with multi-crore scam.
A source informed that the High Court, however, did not grant absolute bail to MDS Administration Officers S Ranjit.
Earlier, the High Court, at the time of filing the anticipatory bail, had granted interim bail for the individuals by furnishing a PR bond of Rs 50,000 each.
With the granting of absolute bail, the High Court also directed all of them to appear before the CBI as and when required for investigation and not to leave the country without permission from the CBI Court.
