New Delhi: DMK leader Kanimozhi on Saturday applied for bail in Delhi High Court in the 2G scam case.
Kanimozhi's bail plea was dismissed on Thursday by the special CBI court. The court also announced that the trial will begin on November 11.
Judge OP Saini dismissed the bail pleas of all accused in the scam on three accounts. He said the three accounts on which the order is based are that the "crime committed was a deliberate offence, an economic offence and very serious in nature." He added that the accused used public money in careful manner for their personal use.
The judgement reads that the order given has not been influenced by any external factors but solely keeping in mind the facts and circumstances of the case.
It further added that 'a murder may be committed in the heat of moment upon passion being aroused. An economic offence is committed with cool calculation and deliberate design with an eye on personal profit regardless of consequence to community'.
Kanimozhi has been charged for accepting bribes, criminal conspiracy to cheat the exchequer and criminal breach of trust and has been in Tihar Jail since May 2011.
