On August 9, 2024, the Supreme Court of India granted bail to former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in both CBI and ED cases related to the Excise Policy.
The court emphasised Sisodia's right to a speedy trial, citing his 17-month incarceration.
Sisodia must pay ₹10 lakh in bail bonds, surrender his passport, and report to the police station weekly.
The court's decision allows him to challenge the charges under more favourable conditions, following earlier denials of bail by lower courts.
Former SNP MP Joanna Cherry has welcomed the Supreme Court’s ruling on the legal definition of a woman, describing it as a key moment in the debate over sex-based rights. She said the judgment vindicates long-standing concerns but warned that it must now be properly implemented. Cherry urged political leaders to ensure the ruling is respected and reflected in everyday policy. Report by Covellm.
