SUPREME COURT RESERVED JUDGEMENT ON BAIL PETITION; 'SOME INCONGRUENCY' IN ED'S STANCE THAT MANISH SISODIA DELAYED TRIAL
The Business Guardian
|August 08, 2024
The Supreme Court in case reserved its verdict wherein the petition is filed former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia seeking bail in the liquor policy case.
-
The bench comprising of Justice BR Gavai and Justice KV Viswanathan in the case was hearing the present matter.
The bench in the case reserved the order after considering the submissions made by both the parties.
The bench in the case flagged an apparent incongruency between Enforcement Directorate's stances, as on one hand, it has been claimed that trial could have commenced had Manish Sisodia did not delayed it by filing unwarranted applications, but on the other, Sisodia sought time on June 4, 2024 i.e., till July 03, 2024 to collate data and file a final chargesheet or prosecution complaint.
The bench headed by Justice Viswanathan in the case observed that the last chargesheet comes on June 28, 2024, then you will tell Supreme Court we are in the process of filing supplementary...this means that even you felt unless all chargesheets were filed...trial cannot start... Now to say that you could have proceeded and they delayed...some incongruency is there.
The bench also asked the Enforcement Directorate, ED to realistically say as to when the trial can end.
