The Supreme Court has recently set to deliberate on the plea of AAP MLA Jaswant Singh Gajjan Majra, who is challenging his arrest and remand in connection with a money-laundering investigation tied to a bank fraud case.
A vacation bench comprising of Justice CT Ravikumar and Justice Manoj Misra will likely preside over the matter.
Previously in the matter, the Supreme Court denied interim bail, preventing Majra from campaigning for the Lok Sabha elections.
The Punjab & Haryana High Court also dismissed his challenge to the arrest, citing no illegality in the process.
In May 2023, the CBI raided Majra’s premises in connection with an alleged Rs.40 crore bank fraud.
Earlier, in September 2022, the ED seized Rs 32 lakh in cash, mobile phones, and hard drives during raids related to the same case.
