The Supreme Court agreed to hear a plea challenging grant of 15-day interim bail to Raghav Magunta, son of YSR Congress Party MP Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, by the Delhi High Court.
The Supreme Court agreed to hear on June 9 a plea challenging grant of 15-day interim bail to Raghav Magunta, son of YSR Congress Party MP Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, by the Delhi High Court.
A vacation bench of Justices Aniruddha Bose and Rajesh Bindal took note of the submission by Additional Solicitor General S V Raju, appearing for the ED, who sought an urgent hearing.
The ASG said regular bail has been rejected and interim bail on grounds of wife’s sickness has also been denied.
“Now suddenly mother-in-law slips in bathroom and she is under observation. There is nothing serious. His father is an MP who can look after her. Three siblings are there to take care and despite that the high court has granted bail,” he said while seeking stay of the order.
