Delhi Excise Policy Scam: Rouse Avenue Court To Pronounce Verdict On Sanjay Singh’s Bail Plea On Dec 22

Delhi’s Rouse Avenue court on Thursday stated that it will pronounce its judgement on the bail application of senior AAP leader Sanjay Singh, arrested in a money laundering case stemming from the alleged Delhi excise policy scam, on Friday.

Special Judge MK Nagpal, stated that the judgment will be pronounced on Friday at 3:30 PM.

Previously, the court reserved its order on Singh’s bail application on December 12.

During the proceedings, senior advocate Mohit Mathur, representing Singh, informed the judge that the Enforcement Directorate had not summoned Singh for questioning before his arrest, emphasizing alleged contradictions in the statements of Dinesh Arora, an accused turned approver, and other witnesses.

The ED opposed the bail application, asserting that the investigation was still ongoing, and if released on bail, Singh might obstruct the inquiry, manipulate evidence, and influence witnesses.

Singh got arrested by the anti-money laundering agency on October 4.

The ED contends that Singh played a pivotal role in the creation and execution of the now-abolished excise policy, benefiting specific liquor manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers in exchange for financial considerations.

However, Singh refutes these allegations, maintaining his innocence.
