New Delhi:
The Supreme Court on Monday rejected AAP leader Satyendar Jain’s regular bail plea in a money laundering case.
A bench of Justices Bela M Trivedi and Pankaj Mithal asked Jain, who was granted interim bail, to surrender immediately.
The Supreme Court rejected an oral plea filed by Jain’s lawyers to allow him to surrender within a week.
On January 17, the Supreme Court reserved its verdict on his regular bail plea.
The Supreme Court granted interim bail to Jain on May 26, 2023 on health grounds and the bail was extended from time to time.
Jain has moved the Supreme Court challenging the Delhi High Court’s April 6, 2023 order dismissing his regular bail application in the case.
The ED arrested the AAP leader on May 30, 2022, on charges of money laundering through four companies allegedly linked to him.
It arrested Jain based on a CBI FIR registered in 2017 under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
Jain denied the charges and was granted fixed-term bail by the trial court on September 6, 2019, in a case registered with the CBI.
