The Supreme Court on Thursday granted interim bail to Yes Bank founder Rana Kapoor’s wife Bindu and daughters Roshini and Radha in the case for illegal transfer of money by the bank to Dewan Housing Finance Limited (DHFL).

A bench of Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and M.M. Sundresh granted interim bail while directing the CBI and the ED to file their respective counter affidavits within four weeks. Senior advocates Harish Salve and Mukul Rohatgi appeared for the accused.

They argued that although the accused were granted interim bail in other grievance charges entailing life term, yet the high court chose not to grant them bail for lesser office.

The court in its order said: “The petitioners are granted interim bail with no specific conditions at this stage as they were granted originally bail/interim bail subject to certain terms and conditions by the trial court which would naturally equally apply here.”
