The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) later took the disgraced founder and former chairman of Satyam Computer Services Limited to Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) here for a medical check-up.

The Supreme Court had rejected the petitions of the accused seeking additional time to surrender.

The apex court had cancelled the bail of Raju and five others and had asked them to surrender before the trial court by Nov 10.

Raju, 56, was arrested in January last year after he admitted to India's biggest corporate fraud. He was granted bail by the Andhra Pradesh High Court on Aug 18 on the ground that other accused had also been granted bail.

At that time Raju was undergoing treatment at NIMS for hepatitis C infection. He had been avoiding court since November last year, delaying the commencement of the trial. He was discharged from NIMS on Oct 2.
