A Delhi court granted bail on Friday to Gangadhar Ranganath Gunde, a suspect in CBI custody in the NEET case, after he claimed that a namesake from Bengaluru, not him, was involved in the paper leak and that his arrest was a case of mistaken identity.
According to Gunde, the CBI picked him up when it should have gone after his namesake, Bengaluru’s N Gangadhar Appa.A worker aged around 60 in a private company in Gurugram since 1990, Gunde was arrested while on way to Dehradun on June 26. Special judge Ankit Singla granted Gunde bail on a bond of Rs 25000 and other conditions.
