AAP to Challenge Delhi High Court's Stay on Arvind Kejriwal's Bail in SC

The Aam Aadmi Party plans to challenge the Delhi High Court's stay on bail granted to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a money laundering case. The trial court's bail decision was overturned by the High Court, prompting AAP to seek recourse in the Supreme Court.

The Aam Aadmi Party announced on Tuesday its intention to challenge the Delhi High Court's stay on the bail granted to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. The bail, initially approved by the trial court on June 20 in connection with a money laundering case linked to the Delhi excise policy scam, was contested by the Enforcement Directorate.

Justice Sudhir Kumar Jain of the High Court stated that the trial court had overlooked crucial evidence and failed to provide the Enforcement Directorate an adequate opportunity to present its case. As a result, the High Court stayed the earlier bail order.

Reacting to the court's decision, Delhi cabinet minister Saurabh Bharadwaj disclosed that AAP's legal team would bring the matter before the Supreme Court. Bharadwaj expressed skepticism regarding the High Court's impartiality and reiterated the party's commitment to seeking justice.
