Police on Tuesday had interrogated the company's Candolim store manager Chaitrali Sawant, who was granted anticipatory bail by a local court on Monday.

Earlier, four employees of the company's outlet in Candolim had been arrested after Union HRD Minister Smriti Irani, who visited the store on April 3, alleged that it had a CCTV camera focusing at the trial room.

They were booked under IPC sections 354C (voyeurism), 509 (intrusion into privacy) and IT Act's section 66E (capturing, publishing image of private area of any person without his/her consent).

They were later granted bail. Fabindia has denied it had placed hidden cameras in any of its stores, holding that the camera in question was part of the surveillance system.
