Delhi High Court Reserves Verdict On Amandeep Dhall’s Bail Plea In Liquor Policy Scam

The Delhi High Court has reserved its order on Amandeep Singh Dhall’s bail plea. Dhall, a director of Brindco Sales Pvt Ltd and an alleged accused in the Delhi liquor policy scam, seeks bail in a money laundering case. Justice Neena Bansal Krishna reserved the decision after hearing arguments from both sides.

Senior advocate Dayan Krishnan, representing Dhall, argued for bail based on parity. He highlighted that the Supreme Court granted bail to other individuals involved in the case, such as Manish Sisodia, K Kavitha, and Vijay Nair. Krishnan emphasized that Dhall and the other accused have been in custody for several months and that the trial is expected to be lengthy.

Opposition from Enforcement Directorate

Advocate Vivek Gurnani, representing the Enforcement Directorate (ED), opposed Dhall’s bail plea. Gurnani argued that Dhall faces allegations of influencing witnesses and offering bribes while in custody, obstructing the investigation. He cited substantial digital evidence and witness statements supporting these claims.

Gurnani also pointed out that Dhall’s actions have delayed the trial, setting his case apart from those of other individuals who have received bail. On June 4, the high court had previously denied Dhall bail in the CBI case related to the excise policy, citing the seriousness of the charges, the evidence collected, and the pending nature of the charges.

In a separate matter, the Delhi High Court has also reserved its decision on Madhu Koda’s petition, which seeks a stay on his conviction in the coal scam case.
