India, May 17 -- Delhi's Rouse Avenue district court on Saturday granted bail to Robert Vadra in the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) money laundering case over the Shikohpur land deal. Special Judge (PC Act) Sushant Changotra granted bail upon payment of Rs 50,000 as surety.

ED had filed a charge sheet in the case without arresting Vadra. ED's counsel Zoheb Hossain appeared online and informed the court that ED is filing a status report and also sought two weeks' time to file another status report after conducting further investigation.

He told the court that the order of cognisance has also been challenged by Vadra and other accused persons before the High Court.
