The CBI team probing corruption in SEEPZ SEZ suffered further embarrassment on Thursday when the special court released the seventh arrested accused in the case, Assistant Development Commissioner Rekha Nair, as well.

On Wednesday the court had ordered the release of six accused in the case after their arrest was held illegal. On Thursday the court said that the agency ought to have sent a notice to Nair and obtained sanction for arrest before taking her into custody.

The CBI told the court that Nair was arrested on Wednesday evening on corruption charges. The agency sought her custody claiming that during the investigation, Joint Development Commissioner CPS Chauhan had admitted to have accepted a bribe of Rs15 lakh from middleman Manoj Joglekar.
