MUMBAI, Sept. 30 -- Citing a recent Delhi High Court order that found his medical condition required sustained supervision, a special CBI court in Mumbai on Tuesday granted bail on medical grounds to former Reliance Capital vice-chairman Amitabh Jhunjhunwala, 70, in an alleged Rs.4,097-crore bank fraud case involving Reliance Commercial Finance Ltd (RCFL). Special Judge Nitin V Jiwane relied on the Delhi High Court's September 22 order while granting Jhunjhunwala bail. The Delhi court, in a related money-laundering case, held that he qualified as a person who was "sick or infirm" under the medical exception to the stringent bail provisions of the PMLA. Jhunjhunwala's lawyers, senior advocate Aabad Ponda and advocates Mudit Jain, Rahul Agarwal, Jasmin Purani and Harsh Shah, told the Mumbai court that he suffered from spinal fractures, osteoporosis, sarcopenia and coronary artery disease. They said his condition had worsened during custody. The Delhi High Court had examined medical records from Tihar Jail and several government hospitals and noted spinal pathology, osteoporosis, the need for supervised rehabilitation and a pre-existing cardiac condition. The CBI opposed the plea, arguing that the Delhi High Court order was in a PMLA case and that the medical findings should be independently assessed in the CBI case. The agency has alleged that Jhunjhunwala had substantial control over the financial affairs of the Reliance Capital group and was involved in decisions relating to raising, routing and utilisation of funds. The CBI has alleged that funds raised by RCFL were diverted through linked entities to other group companies and used to service their debt obligations....
