Delhi Excise Policy: Court Extends AAP MP Sanjay Singh Judicial Custody till Nov 10

Delhi’s Rouse Avenue court on Friday extended the judicial custody of AAP leader Sanjay Singh in a money laundering case related to the alleged Delhi excise scam until November 10.

Special Judge M K Nagpal has also granted Singh permission to sign specific cheques for his family expenses and parliamentary duties.

The judge has further asked the relevant jail authorities to ensure that Singh receives appropriate medical treatment, including care from his private doctor.

“Court sees no reason to refuse the private treatment to the accused…. Hence, the jail superintendent concerned is directed to ensure the appropriate treatment,” the judge stated.

Additionally, the judge has urged Singh’s counsel to ensure that no supporters of Singh or others gather at the medical center during his visits.

Sanjay Singh was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on October 4 in connection with a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in the Delhi excise policy for 2021-22. The ED’s money laundering case is based on the First Information Report (FIR) filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Both the CBI and the ED allege irregularities occurred during the modification of the Delhi Excise Policy for 2021-22, providing undue advantages to license holders.

It is alleged that Sanjay Singh played a crucial role in the formulation and implementation of the policy, resulting in financial gains for certain liquor manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers.
