New Delhi, May 30 (IANS) A special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court here Monday ordered the arrest of Cineyug Films’ founder Karim Morani, named a co-conspirator in the 2G spectrum allocation scam, after dismissing his bail plea.

CBI Special Judge O.P. Saini said: “Accused Karim Morani’s bail is dismissed. He should be taken into custody.”

Morani was earlier exempted from personal appearance in the court due to his ill-health. He first appeared in the court May 24, a day after his anticipatory bail plea was dismissed.

The CBI named Morani a co-conspirator in a charge sheet after it traced an illegal money trail of Rs.214 crore in the scam.
