Yeddyurappa smiles, walks to freedom after getting bail

Bangalore, Nov 8: Former Karnataka CM BS Yeddyurappa has been granted bail in the fourth case that was slapped on him on the land denotification scam by the Karnataka High Court. He was under judicial custody for the past 15 days and was jailed at the Parappana Agrahara central jail in Bangalore. He was charged by the special Lokayukta court.

Of the total five cases in his name, he was granted anticipatory bail in two cases. The judge hearing his bail plea said that the offence committed by him does not warrant death or a life sentence. The judge also said that the veracity of the documents have to be proved that showed Yeddyurappa guilty.

The release of Yeddyurappa on bail is seen as a great moral victory for the state BJP administration.
