Sanjay Singh: Supreme Court grants bail to AAP leader in Delhi Excise Policy case | Oneindia

The Supreme Court granted bail to AAP leader Sanjay Singh in the Delhi excise policy case on Tuesday, as the Enforcement Directorate (ED) chose not to contest the bail plea. Confirming no objection to Sanjay Singh's bail, the ED marked a significant development in the case. Sanjay Singh, thus, becomes the first senior AAP leader to secure regular bail in the money laundering case linked to the defunct liquor policy. Notably, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, former deputy Manish Sisodia, and former health minister Satyendar Jain remain in judicial custody in connection with the same case. #SanjaySingh #SupremeCourt #AAPLeader #DelhiExcisePolicy #BailGranted #LegalUpdate #JudicialDecision #DelhiLaw #LegalNews #JusticePrevails ~PR.152~ED.103~
