Supreme Court Seeks Clarification On Including AAP As An Accused

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is seeking legal advice regarding the possible inclusion of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as an accused in money laundering charges related to the now-abolished Delhi liquor policy. During a bail hearing for senior AAP leader and former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, the Supreme Court questioned the ED’s decision not to name AAP as an accused, given their assertion that the party benefited from the liquor policy.

The court raised separate question

Furthermore, the court raised a separate question regarding whether a court of law can examine a cabinet note. There was a mention of specific Constitution bench judgments that might restrict such examination. It was noted that this issue might be different for Delhi, being a Union Territory, but this matter had not been explicitly raised.
