Justice T. Mallikarjuna Rao of the Andhra Pradesh High Court posted the anticipatory bail petition filed by TDp national president N. Chandrababu Naidu in the case related to granting of licence to distilleries for hearing to November 21.
Advocate-General S. Sriram told the High Court that no orders were necessary in the present case as interim bail was granted to Mr. Naidu on health grounds in the skill development scam case, which expires on November 28, when he has to surrender. Hence, there was no basis for the petitioner to apprehend his arrest.
Mr. Sriram insisted that it was a case of looting of the resources by Mr. Naidu, who sought to ‘convert every resource of the State into his asset’. The CID would continue its investigation and file a counter, he added.
