The former Chief Minister of Jharkhand Hemant Soren moved the Supreme Court on Monday against rejection of his bail plea by the Jharkhand High Court in a money laundering case in connection with an alleged land scam.
Senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for Soren, mentioned the matter before a bench headed by CJI DY Chandrachud seeking urgent listing of his plea.
The bench also comprising Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra stated that it would look into the request.
Previously on Friday, the Jharkhand High Court has dismissed Soren’s writ petition challenging his arrest by the ED and denied bail to him.
Soren got arrested by the ED on January 31 and is at present in judicial custody and lodged at the Birsa Munda Central Jail in Ranchi. He was sent to the jail on February 15 after 13-day custody of the ED.
