 Special judge O.P. Saini will also rule on the bail plea of Kalaignar TV chief Sharad Kumar, named along with Kanimozhi as a co-accused in the second chargesheet filed by the investigative agency in the case.
 
 Saini had May 6 reserved his order on their bail application, saying: "The case will be taken up May 14."

 Apart from Raja, the CBI has also chargesheeted his aide R.K. Chandolia, former telecom secretary Siddhartha Behura and Swan Telecom promoter Shahid Usman Balwa for conspiring to sell the 2G spectrum waves to select companies at rock bottom prices.
 
 Later, the probe agency also named Kanimozhi, Sharad Kumar, Cineyug Film's Karim Morani, Asif Balwa and Rajiv as co-conspirators in the case. Karunanidhi's wife Dayalu Ammal was listed as a witness.
 
 Morani is the only one who has been exempted from personal appearance due to ill health. However, he has been directed to appear on May 18.
 
 Vinod Goenka of Swan Telecom, Sanjay Chandra of Unitech and three officials of the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group - Gautam Doshi, Hari Nair and Surendra Pipara - were also named in the chargesheet.
 
 Apart from Raja, Chandolia, Behura, Shahid Balwa, Asif Balwa, Agarwal, Goenka, Chandra, Doshi, Nair and Pipara are in judicial custody.
 
 Meanwhile the court will continue the arguments on the bail plea of Asif Balwa and Rajiv B. Agarwal of Kusegaon Realty on May 18.
