The Supreme Court on July 29 agreed to have a detailed hearing on petitions filed by former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia for bail in the excise policy case on August 5.
A Bench headed by Justices B.R. Gavai and K.V. Viswanathan acquiesced to a request made by the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) for more time to file a counter affidavit.
Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju said the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has already filed its counter affidavit.
Mr. Raju, appearing for both the CBI and ED, voiced a preliminary objection that Mr. Sisodia was repeatedly challenging the same order on his bail.
Senior advocate A.M. Singhvi, appearing for Mr. Sisodia, retorted that the Central agencies were deliberately taking turns to delay the bail hearing.
The Bench directed Mr. Raju to file the ED counter by Thursday, and posted the case for hearing on Monday (August 5).
