The special Lokayukta court on Saturday adjourned to December 2 hearing of the bail application filed by Bharatiya Janata Party corporator Katta Jagadish, who is under judicial custody following his arrest in a land scam.
Judge N K Sudhindra Rao adjourned the hearing to December 2 after Lokayukta Special Public Prosecutor I S Pramod Chandra filed objections to the bail application.
Katta Jagadish, son of former minister Katta Subramanya Naidu, had filed a fresh application seeking bail on grounds of mercy to attend to his ailing father.
Katta Subramanya is presently out on interim bail, to seek treatment for cancer. He has also been allowed to travel to London for treatment. Jagadish, in his bail application, said he wished to be with his ailing parents and his two-year-old son needed care and attention.
He was sent to judicial custody on August 8 along with his father in connection with alleged irregularities in securing compensation from Karnataka Industrial Area Development for lands it acquired for industrial purposes.
While the Lokayukta court and high court declined bail to Jagadish, Naidu was granted three-month bail last month on health grounds.
