Arvind Kejriwal Denied Relief By Delhi High Court, To Stay In Jail

A vacation bench led by Justice Sudhir Kumar Jain had reserved its decision on June 21 after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) appealed against a lower court's ruling that granted bail to Kejriwal

Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal will remain in jail following the Delhi High Court’s decision to uphold the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) challenge against a trial court’s bail order. This pertains to a money laundering case linked to a defunct excise policy.

The high court rebuked the trial court’s rationale, labeling its dismissal of the extensive evidence presented by the ED as “completely unjustified.” The vacation bench of Justice Sudhir Kumar Jain criticized the trial court’s decision, stating that the observation that voluminous material could not be considered was completely unjustified. It indicated that the trial court had not properly evaluated the evidence presented.

The high court also pointed out that the vacation judge did not adequately deliberate on the twin conditions specified in Section 45 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

A significant issue of contention was the trial court’s mention of alleged mala fide actions by the ED in paragraph 27 of its order.
