Top court objects to Senthil Balaji's minister post after bail: 'What's going on?'

India Today  

The Supreme Court on Monday raised concern over DMK leader Senthil Balaji's reinstatement as a minister in Tamil Nadu following bail granted to him in a money laundering case. A two-judge bench of the Supreme Court, comprising Justices Abhay S Oka and Augustine George Masih, however, refused to interfere with the September 26 order that granted bail to Balaji. In its observations, the Supreme Court further said that it will only consider one aspect of the plea where apprehension has been expressed that witnesses might feel pressure given the fact that Balaji is now a minister in the Tamil Nadu government. A money laundering case was also filed against Balaji by the Enforcement Directorate, claiming that being a public servant, Balaji "misused" his official capacity as the then transport minister, he obtained pecuniary benefits by corrupt and illegal means and directly acquired the proceeds of crime.
