The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted bail to AAP leader Sanjay Singh in the Delhi excise policy case after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) opted not to oppose the bail plea. The Enforcement Directorate said it has no objection if the AAP leader Sanjay Singh is given bail in the case.
Dictating the order, a three-judge bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna, Dipankar Datta and PB Varale said that concession made on behalf of the probe agency shall not be cited as precedent.
With this, Sanjay Singh has become the first senior AAP leader to be granted regular bail in the money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped liquor policy. Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, his former deputy Manish Sisodia and former health minister Satyendar Jain are under judicial custody in the case.
Reacting to the apex court’s order, senior AAP leader said ‘Satyamev Jayate’ in a social media post on X.
