The counsel for Ghosh submitted that he has been under detention since November 2013 and has been cooperating with the CBI investigating officer and such he be granted bail.

The CBI counsel opposed the bail plea of Ghosh claiming that it was a case of monetary scam and illegal money transfer was involved in the case and that if enlarged on bail, investigation could be hampered.
