A special CBI court on Thursday asked BJP veterans LK Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi and Union Minister Uma Bharti to appear before it on 30 May in the Babri Masjid demolition case.

The special CBI court that began day-to-day hearing in the politically-sensitive case on 20 May has granted bail to former Shiv Sena MP Satish Pradhan, the sixth accused in the said case.

Special CBI court judge SK Yadav granted him bail on a surety of Rs. 20,000 and a personal bond of the same amount.

The Supreme Court had on 19 April directed the special court to start proceedings in the matter in a month and deliver the verdict within two years.
