Singh was required to seek regular bail in the matter as the court had already taken cognizance of the chargesheet filed against him Jan 31.

The CBI Sept 20, 2007 registered a case against Singh and Garg for allegedly violating Section 5 (wrongful communication of information) of the Act. It also charged Singh under sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy) and 409 (criminal breach of trust by a public servant) of the Indian Penal Code.
