Live Law  

After granting similar relief in Arvind Kejriwal's case, the Supreme Court today granted interim bail to one Subhash Prasad Yadav - accused in a money laundering case - for the purpose of contesting Jharkhand Assembly elections. A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan passed the order in Yadav's challenge to a Patna High Court order. Apparently, Yadav filed nomination as a candidate for Jharkhand assembly elections and moved a bail application before the Patna High Court for enabling him to campaign for elections. "it is an admitted fact that the petitioner has already filed a regular bail application before this Court which is still pending and knowing this fact, petitioner has filed the present Criminal Writ Application for interim bail for campaigning in the Election, therefore, it is not just and proper for this Bench to pass any order in favour of the petitioner", the High Court said.
