Srilakshmi bail plea rejected
Y. Srilakshmi, former principal secretary to the industries department and accused in the OMC illegal mining case on Monday approached the AP High Court, challenging the rejection of her bail application by the special CBI court. The CBI on November 29, 2011 arrested Ms Srilakshmi for her alleged nexus with former Karnataka minister Gali Janardhan Reddy in granting a mining lease to the OMC. Earlier, the CBI court granted her bail, but the High Court cancelled it upon the CBI’s plea. Then she filed another plea before the special court, seeking bail, and her plea was rejected on Friday.
