The CBI, probing the alleged fake encounter of Sohrabuddin Sheikh, today opposed the interim bail plea of accused IPS officer Abhay Chudasama who claimed that he had to undergo hip replacement surgery.

In reply to the interim bail plea of Chudasama filed in the court of CBI judge GK Upadhyay, the agency said that Chudasama had earlier tried "to monitor" the investigation in an unauthorised manner.

Chudasama had tried to influence key witnesses in the case, the CBI alleged.

The CBI contended that since investigation in the case was at a very crucial stage, granting Chudasama interim bail would hamper the probe.

With regard to Chudasama's need for hip replacement surgery, CBI said that such operations can be done in a government hospital for which there is no need for bail. 

Chudasama's advocate Rohit Verma had sought time from the
court to file a rejoinder to CBI's reply. The court fixed June
10 for the next hearing.

According to Chudasama's application, he had met with an
accident in 1994 and had to undergo hip replacement surgery.
But due to continuous regression, he had to undergo surgery
again in 2000.

Chudasama stated that since December 2008 he was having pain in his right leg and was facing problem in "walking, sitting as well as sleeping". 

According to his application, just before his arrest last month, Chudasama was advised to undergo the surgery again.

During his stay in jail, he was examined by doctors and later referred to the civil hospital. 

The doctors' committee opined that if pain persisted, he would be required to undergo surgery for revision of hip prosthesis.
