Vijaya Sai Reddy files bail petition

Jagati Publications vice chairman Vijaya Sai Reddy on Wednesday filed a bail petition in a special CBI court in Hyderabad. A day after YSR Congress Party chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy released from jail, Vijaya Sai Reddy filed a bail petition. 

The trial has not yet commenced and in any case, it is likely to be protracted. In these circumstances, it would be in the interest of fair play and justice that the petitioner (Vijay Sai) be released on bail, the plea said.

Two more accused in the Vanpic aspect of the case -- industrialist Nimmagadda Prasad and bureaucrat K V Brahmananda Reddy -- had yesterday filed bail petitions.

Meanwhile, N. Sunil Reddy, seventh accused in the Emaar Properties land deal case also moved a bail application in a special CBI court in Hyderabad.
