Yogendra Yadav released after furnishing bail bond

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Yogendra Yadav was today granted bail by a Delhi court, a day after he was arrested for violating prohibitory orders imposed around Tihar Jail protesting Arvind Kejriwal's arrest.

Advocate Prashant Bhushan, appearing for Yadav, said the AAP leader should be granted bail on an undertaking and he will not furnish any bail bond.

During the proceeding, the Delhi Police told the court that they were ready to release Yadav last night itself as the offence was bailable but he expressed his inability to furnish the surety. Yadav, however, was ready to give personal bond, police said.

59 protesters, including Yadav, Manish Sisodia and Rakhi Birla, were held by the police for violating prohibitory orders. Later, Birla was allowed to walk free after mid night while Sisodia was arrested and released on furnishing the bail bond.
