New Delhi [India], April 2 (ANI): After the Supreme Court granted bail to Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh in a money laundering case related to the excise policy case, Communist Party of India (CPI) leader D Raja said that this is a befitting reply to the Centre and expressed hope that others may get bail.
“It is a blow to the politics of vendetta being pursued by the Union Government. This will give the hope that others will also get bail and will be released. Truth will triumph and justice will prevail,” he said.
Meanwhile, the top court passed down the ruling during a hearing on Singh’s plea challenging Sanjay Singh’s arrest and remand in the money laundering case.
A bench led by Justice Sanjiv Khanna directed to release of Sanjay Singh on bail during the pendency of trial in a money laundering case relating to excise policy irregularities.
The ED response came after the court sought to know from the investigating agency whether it needed further custody of AAP leader Sanjay Singh in the excise policy case.
The Enforcement Directorate informed the apex court that the agency had no objection to Singh getting bail.
The court observed that Sanjay Singh had spent six months in jail.
The top court was hearing AAP leader Sanjay Singh’s plea against the Delhi High Court order refusing to grant him bail excise policy irregularities case.
Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh has approached the Supreme Court against the Delhi High Court order refusing to grant him bail in connection with an excise policy irregularities case.
In his bail plea, Sanjay Singh has challenged the Delhi High Court order dated February 7, 2024.
Sanjay Singh moved the High Court when on December 22, 2023, the trial court dismissed his bail.
Sanjay Singh was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on October 4, 2023 in the case. According to ED, Sanjay Singh was alleged to be involved in creating a special purpose vehicle to launder the proceeds of crime that would have been generated from the business arising out of the policy changes as conspired by him and his co-conspirators.
