NEW DELHI: A city court on Saturday reserved the order on former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s bail plea extending his bail plea by another 2 days.
Sisodia had moved a bail plea on Friday. In his bail request, Manish Sisodia said that keeping him in custody will “serve no fruitful purpose” as all the recoveries in the case have already been made.
Prior to moving the local court, Sisodia had moved the SC, which refused to interfere into the matter directed Sisodai to approach a local court.
Sisodia faces corruption allegation in framing a liquor policy for the national capital, which was scrapped after Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena flagged it to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The AAP leader was arrested on Sunday evening over alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped liquor policy for 2021-22. Jain is currently in Tihar Jail in a money laundering case. He resigned from the Delhi Cabinet on Tuesday.
