AAP leader Manish Sisodia.
The bail plea of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia, who was arrested for his alleged involvement in a money laundering case, was rejected by the Delhi High Court on 3 July.
Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma denied bail to Sisodia, stating that he is not eligible for it at this stage. In addition to Sisodia, the high court also dismissed the bail pleas of businessmen Abhishek Boinpally, Benoy Babu, and Vijay Nair.
They are co-accused in the money laundering case filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) related to the alleged scam.
Sisodia has been in judicial custody since his arrest on 9 March in the case filed by the ED. On 30 May, the high court denied him bail in the CBI case.
The excise policy implemented by the Delhi government on 17 November, 2021, was scrapped in September 2022 due to allegations of corruption.
