Beleaguered real estate company D B Realty, has appointed Krishna Murari Goenka and Usman Balwa as additional directors of the company with effect from 21 April, 2011.

It said further that the company had also taken on record during the same meeting the resignation of Michael McCook, from directorship of D B Realty.

Meanwhile, a Delhi Court had on 20 April dismissed the bail pleas of five corporate executives, including Swan Telecom director Vinod Goenka, who is an accused in the 2G scam.

The five executives arrested by the investigating agency were taken to Tihar Jail in the national capital following the court order.

According to D B Realty the denial of bail to its managing director Vinod Goenka in the 2G spectrum scam would not have any impact on company''s operations.
