July 11th, 2009 - 10:46 pm ICT by IANS ( Leave a comment )Shimla, July 11 (IANS) A Himachal Pradesh court Saturday granted bail to senior Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer Sanjay Gupta, who was arrested by the state vigilance bureau on corruption charges.
“Solan’s district and sessions judge C.B. Barowalia Saturday granted bail to General Industries Corporation (GIC) managing director Sanjay Gupta,” Inspector General (Vigilance) S.R. Mardi told IANS.
Gupta, who is also managing director of the state Financial Corporation, was arrested from a hotel in Parwanoo by the vigilance bureau Thursday for possessing Rs.200,000 in cash.
Another senior GIC official, Ashok Sehgal, was also arrested along with Gupta.
Mardi said Gupta and Sehgal have been booked under Section 13 (2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
“Gupta’s houses in Shimla and Panchkula (in Haryana) were raided and the vigilance has seized documents, including several fixed deposit receipts, bank papers and shares, jewellery and a laptop,” a senior vigilance official said.
Gupta was earlier booked in a vigilance case after he was charged with irregularities and financial bungling when he was posted as the additional deputy commissioner of Kinnaur in the early 1990s.
