Supreme Court: ‘Whenever bail petition is heard, only then…’, ED expressed surprise over Satyendar Jain’s health
On Thursday, the bail plea of Aam Aadmi Party leader and former Delhi government minister Satyendar Jain was heard in the Supreme Court. During this hearing, Additional Solicitor General SV Raju, appearing on behalf of ED, expressed surprise about Satyendra Jain’s health and said that whenever Jain’s bail plea is heard, he faints. SV Raju said before the bench of Justice Bela M Trivedi and Justice Pankaj Mittal that ‘It is said that lightning never strikes the same place twice.’
What happened during the court hearing
Additional Solicitor General said that ‘whenever Jain requires bail, he seeks bail on medical grounds and gets admitted to the hospital. Whenever there is a bail hearing in the court, he becomes unconscious, which is a shocking situation. However, the lawyer appearing for Jain in the Supreme Court rejected these claims. After this, the bench listed the matter for hearing on January 17. Besides, Jain’s interim bail was also extended till further orders.
Satyendra Jain is accused of money laundering and he was granted interim bail in this case in May last year. Since then, Jain’s bail period has been continuously increasing.
