A Mumbai court while refusing default bail to former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh in a corruption case has said the Central Bureau of Investigation's chargesheet met all requirements. Courts cannot be too technical while entertaining bail pleas for not filing the chargesheet within the stipulated period, the special CBI court said on Monday, a detailed order of which was made available on Tuesday.

Judge SH Gwalani had rejected the default bail pleas of Deshmukh and two other accused in the corruption case - the NCP leader's former personal secretary Sanjeev Palande and ex-personal assistant Kundan Shinde. The three sought default bail on the ground that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had not submitted its chargesheet within the 60-day mandated period and that the chargesheet filed by the agency was incomplete.
