– On Monday, the Delhi High Court is hearing the interim bail plea of former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in connection with the Delhi liquor scam case.
– The decision on the bail plea was reserved on June 3 by Judge Dinesh Kumar Sharma, and the hearing is going on today.
– The Delhi liquor scam case pertains to the alleged irregularities in the grant of licenses to sell liquor during the coronavirus-induced lockdown last year.
– The Special Cell of the Delhi Police, which is investigating the case, has arrested several people, including Sisodia’s former officer on special duty, in connection with the case.
– Sisodia had moved the High Court seeking interim bail on medical grounds, citing his deteriorating health condition.
– He had tested positive for COVID-19 in April and was subsequently admitted to a hospital in Delhi for treatment.
– Sisodia’s counsel had argued in court that his client was suffering from multiple health issues, including diabetes and hypertension, and needed urgent medical attention.
– The prosecution, on the other hand, had opposed Sisodia’s bail plea, stating that he was a key conspirator in the case and that his release would hamper the ongoing investigation.
The Delhi High Court’s decision on Sisodia’s bail plea is keenly awaited by his supporters and detractors alike.
