A sessions court on Thursday granted bail to Vinay Singh, arrested in an extortion case in which former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh and sacked police officer Sachin Waje have been named as co-accused.
According to the case registered in Goregaon, Vinay along with another accused used to extort money from bars and restaurants on the instructions of two police officers.
Vinay was granted bail with conditions, including that he would not leave Mumbai without the prior permission of the court.
Arguing on his behalf, advocate Aniket Nikam had submitted that there was a delay in registering the FIR and Vinay had no contact with either Singh or Vaze. The court was also told that Singh has been provided security by the Supreme Court.
