The Supreme Court on December 9, 2024, said it would hear AAP leader Manish Sisodia’s pleas seeking relaxation of bail conditions which require him to report to the investigating officer twice a week in the corruption and money laundering cases related to the Delhi excise policy on December 11.
The Supreme Court on Monday (December 9, 2024) said it would hear AAP leader Manish Sisodia's pleas seeking relaxation of bail conditions which require him to report to the investigating officer twice a week in the corruption and money laundering cases related to the Delhi excise policy on December 11.
Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for Mr. Sisodia, mentioned the matter before a Bench of Justices B.R. Gavai and K.V. Viswanathan.
"Day after tomorrow," the Bench said, while agreeing to list the matter on December 11.
The apex court on November 22 agreed to hear Mr. Sisodia's pleas and issued notices to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) seeking their responses on the applications.
On August 9, the apex court had granted him bail in the corruption and money laundering cases linked to the alleged Delhi excise policy scam, saying long incarceration for 17 months without trial had deprived him of his right to speedy trial.
The apex court had imposed conditions, including that he shall report to the investigating officer on every Monday and Thursday between 10 and 11 a.m.
During the hearing on November 22, Mr. Singhvi had said the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader had appeared before the investigating officers 60 times.
