Delhi CM Kejriwal seeks bail extension in Supreme Court

Hindustan Times  

Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal has moved the Supreme Court seeking an extension of his 21-day interim bail by one week on medical grounds — he was expected to return to jail on June 2 — citing “alarming” health complications he endured during his recent incarceration in connection with the Delhi excise Policy case and the urgent need for medical tests. Read Here: Arvind Kejriwal’s aide Bibhav Kumar denied bail in Swati Maliwal assault case The top court on May 10 granted Kejriwal temporary bail till June 1, rejecting the Enforcement Directorate’s argument that the CM’s release for political campaigning would imply preferential treatment for politicians, and highlighting the significance of elections in a democracy. When the Supreme Court on May 16 heard Kejriwal’s petition challenging his ED arrest, it firmly refuted ED’s contention that granting interim bail to Kejriwal and agreeing to examine the legality of his arrest was an “exceptional” exercise, emphasising that all individuals, irrespective of their status, are entitled to pursue the same legal recourse and remedies. During the hearing of this matter on May 17, ED informed the court that it has uncovered chats between Kejriwal and hawala operators, which the agency claims are crucial in linking the proceeds of crime in the Delhi excise policy case to the AAP’s 2022 Goa election campaign and Kejriwal’s role in the conspiracy.
