In a setback to Suresh Kalmadi, the Delhi High Court on Friday refused permission to the Congress MP, lodged in Tihar Jail in connection with CWG scam, to attend the ongoing Parliament session and imposed a cost of Rs one lakh on him.
"Allowing the petitioner to attend the Parliament, even in judicial custody, would certainly provide the petitioner respites from imprisonment. I see no reason to carve out an exception in favour of the petitioner when his fellow prisoners are not provided such relief," Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw said while dismissing 67-year-old Kalmadi’s plea.
The CBI had vehemently opposed the plea saying the MP was making all attempts to get bail indirectly after he was denied relief by the trial court.

The court had reserved its order on the issue on August 1.
