This application is filed in spite of the order passed by this Court categorically stating that no further application for extension of interim bail shall be entertained."The fine was imposed after the bench heard another petition filed by Raj Kumar Modi seeking interim bail.The apex court noted that he was granted bail for a period of two months on June 15 on the ground that his mother was seriously ill.Later, he filed an application for further extending the interim bail for six months on the ground that his mother passed away and he had to perform certain rituals.He also informed the court that his wife was suffering from serious ailments.On August 10, the top court extended the interim bail for a month and directed the petitioner to surrender on or before September 15."It was made clear that no application for extension of interim bail shall be entertained. We gave liberty to the petitioner to file an application for bail if the Special Leave Petitions are not finally heard, within a period of six months," noted the bench.Later, another bail application was filed on the ground that Raj Kumar Modi was suffering from epididymitis.While submitting the plea, senior advocate K.V.
