The Supreme Court on Friday asked the CBI to respond to a bail plea filed by Christian Michel James — an alleged middleman in the Rs 3,600-crore AgustaWestland helicopter scam — in four weeks.

A Bench, led by Justice Vikram Nath, issued a notice to the probe agency on his petition challenging the Delhi High Court’s September 25 order, which refused him bail in the case. The trial court had also denied him bail.

Michel was extradited from Dubai and arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on December 22, 2018. He has been in judicial custody since January 5, 2019.

Earlier, the Supreme Court rejected Michel’s bail plea on February 7 last year. He had challenged the Delhi High Court order dated March 11, 2022, in which the court had refused him bail in both the CBI and ED cases.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
