'Pre-trial detention can't be so long': SC bail to excise accused

IndiaTimes Friday, 8 December 2023
Supreme Court grants bail to Benoy Babu, regional manager of Pernod Ricard in the Delhi excise scam money laundering case. The court rejects the plea of the Enforcement Directorate to deny bail like Manish Sisodia. Trial has not commenced yet, and the accused has been in pre-trial detention for 13 months. Benoy Babu is not accused in a corruption case, but a prosecution witness for the CBI. The court orders his release on bail, noting that charges have not been framed. Delhi High Court had previously rejected his bail plea.

Sanjay Singh: Supreme Court grants bail to AAP leader in Delhi Excise Policy case | Oneindia

The Supreme Court granted bail to AAP leader Sanjay Singh in the Delhi excise policy case on Tuesday, as the Enforcement Directorate (ED) chose not to contest the bail plea. Confirming no objection to Sanjay Singh's bail, the ED marked a significant development in the case. Sanjay Singh, thus, becomes the first senior AAP leader to secure regular bail in the money laundering case linked to the defunct liquor policy. Notably, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, former deputy Manish Sisodia, and former health minister Satyendar Jain remain in judicial custody in connection with the same case. #SanjaySingh #SupremeCourt #AAPLeader #DelhiExcisePolicy #BailGranted #LegalUpdate #JudicialDecision #DelhiLaw #LegalNews #JusticePrevails ~PR.152~ED.103~
