Special CBI judge Anju Bajaj Chandna granted the relief to Madani on a personal bond of Rs 50,000.
Madani’s former PA Mohd Mubashir was also granted bail on the same bond in the case.
The court has now put up the matter for further hearing on March 29 for scrutiny of documents.
The court had taken cognisance of the CBI charge sheet against Madani, a Rashtriya Lok Dal leader from UP, and Mubashir and asked them to appear before the court.
