SC dismisses ED plea challenging bail to Bhujbal
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|January 22, 2025
IN a partial relief to former Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and current NCP MLA Chhagan Bhujbal, the Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected the ED's plea challenging his bail in a money-laundering case.
UPHOLDING the Jharkhand High Court's judgement which quashed the FIR against lawmakers Nishikant Dubey and Manoj Tiwari, the Supreme Court on Tuesday said BJP MPs will not be prosecuted in connection with an FIR of Jharkhand police for allegedly forcing the Deoghar air traffic control to allow their aircraft to take off after sunset three years ago.
A two-judge bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and Manmohan passed the order on Tuesday, after hearing an appeal filed by the state government challenging the Jharkhand High Court judgment. The bench, however, granted the state government the liberty to forward the material collected during its probe to the authorised officer under the Aircraft Act within four weeks.
