Former deputy chief minist🧔er Manish Sisodia on Thursday approached the Delhi High Court seeking bail in the corruption and money laundering cases lodged by the CBI and the ED in relation to the alleged excise policy scam.
The plea was mentioned before a bench of Acting C♐hief Justice Manmohan and Justice Manmeet PS Arora for an urgent hearing and the court agreed to list on Friday.
"Let the judge go throu꧙gh the file so let it come tomorrow," the bench said.
Advocates Rajat Bhardwaj and Mohd Irshad, repre𓄧senting Sisodia, submitted that the petitioner is an MLA and urged the court to list both the pleas seeking bail for an urgent hearing.
Sisodia has approached the high court challenging a t⛦rial court's April 30 order by which his bail pl🉐eas in the two cases were dismissed.
The trial court has dismissed Sisodia's bail pleas in corruption and money-laundering cases lodged by the both the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with ♛alleged irregularities in the formulation and execution of the excise policy of 2021-22.
The spec𓆉ial judge had denied the relief, saying the stage is not right to grant bail෴ to Sisodia.
