![CAGE-RIWAL FREE BIRD TILL JUNE 1](https://cdn.magzter.com/1549608130/1715384364/articles/A48yeRwTI1715391085647/CAGERIWAL-FREE-BIRD-TILL-JUNE-1.jpg)
Acknowledging that a more holistic and libertarian view is justified, in view of the General Elections, the Supreme Court on Friday granted interim bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal till June 1, the last day of voting in the seven-phase polls.
Kejriwal, who was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in the Delhi liquor policy case on March 21, has been lodged in Tihar Jail since April 1.
"The appellant - Arvind Kejriwal is the Chief Minister of Delhi and a leader of one of the national parties. No doubt, serious accusations have been made, but he has not been convicted. He does not have any criminal antecedents. He is not a threat to the society," the judgment stated.
The decision was welcomed by various political parties and individuals alike. Some pointed out that if rape convict Ram Rahim could be granted parole thrice in 2023, what harm would come if interim bail is given to Kejriwal, who is the elected chief minister of a state and has no criminal record.
