Mumbai, Aug 6 - A Mumbai court Thursday granted bail to former union minister Buta Singh's son Sarabjot alias Sweety Singh and his three associates in a Rs 1 crore corruption case, a legal official said.

Sessions Judge S.P.H. Nagarkar, while granting bail, said that the Central Bureau of Investigations (CBI) had almost completed its probe into the corruption case for which the four were arrested.

'Accordingly, the court ruled that there was no need to continue them in further judicial custody and they were granted bail,' CBI Senior Public Prosecutor Ejaz Khan said.

The four, who are at present lodged in the Arthur Road Jail, are expected to be out on bail by Friday. The court has ordered them to regularly report to the local CBI offices in their respective cities of residence.

Earlier, the CBI, which arrested the accused last week (July 30), had secured their police custody till Thursday, Khan said.

Khan said the CBI had sought extension of their police custody but was declined by Sessions Judge Nagarkar, who sent them to judicial custody.

'The court said that since the CBI has almost completed its investigations in the case, there was no need to grant police custody for the accused,' Khan told IANS.
