He then moved bail application saying he was not required for further probe. The court has sought ED's reply by February 15 on this.
The court had earlier extended by six days the custody of Khaitan to ED, which had arrested him on January 25 under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). Khaitan is already being prosecuted in a case related to AgustaWestland in which he was granted bail.
