Money Laundering Case: SC Extends Interim Bail of AAP Leader Satyendar Jain Till July 24

The Supreme Court on Monday extended the interim bail granted to AAP Leader and ex-Delhi Cabinet Minister Satyendar Jain until July 24 in a money laundering case being investigated by the Enforcement Directorate.

A bench of Justice A.S. Bopanna and Justice  M.M. Sundresh directed senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, representing Jain, to provide the medical reports to Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju.

During the hearing, Singhvi informed the bench that three hospitals have recommended surgery for Jain.

Previously, on May 26, the Apex Court had granted Jain interim bail for six weeks on medical grounds, recognizing that a citizen has the right to receive treatment of their choice in a private hospital at their own expense.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had arrested Jain on May 30, 2022, on charges of money laundering through four companies allegedly associated with him. The arrest came after a CBI FIR was filed against Jain in 2017 under the Prevention of Corruption Act.

Jain was granted regular bail by the trial court on September 6, 2019, in the case registered by the CBI.
