Additional sessions judge OP Saini had on September 24 reserved his verdict on the applications. The others include Swan Telecom promoter Shahid Usman Balwa, former telecom minister A Raja's ex-private secretary RK Chandolia, Kalaignar TV MD Sharad Kumar, directors of Kusegaon Fruits and Vegetables Asif Balwa and Rajiv Agarwal and Bollywood producer Karim Morani.

It also refrained from advancing any arguments against Bollywood producer Karim Morani, Kalaignar TV director Shard Kumar and partner of Kusegaon Fruits and Vegetables Asif Balwa.
