The Delhi High Court today rejected the anticipatory bail plea of Cineyug Films Pvt Ltd Director Karim Morani, an accused in 2G spectrum allocation scam, and said "coercive process" would be applied if he fails to appear before it tommorrow.

"He (Morani) is directed to appear in the court tomorrow at 10 am, failing which coercive process shall be issued," Special CBI Judge O P Saini said. The court dismissed Morani's bail plea on medical ground, saying that as per May 19 reports received from the department of Cardiology and Neurosurgery of Mumbai's J J Hospital, his condition is "stable and normal".

The court also said proper medical facilities are available in Tihar jail. "I may also add that in case of need, proper medical facilities are available in Tihar Jail itself and if an undertrial/prisoner requires any further treatment, he is immediately taken to RML Hospital or AIIMS, as per the requirement of the situation," it said.
