Manish Sisodia

The case revolves around allegations that the AAP government's revised alcohol sales policy facilitated kickbacks from cartels, which were purportedly used to finance electoral expenses in Goa and other states.

These notices are what he has always called "illegal". Kejriwal's argument that the summons he was given was "not in consonance with the law" and should be withdrawn has once again been rejected by the ED.

The judge stated that the case is presently in the stage of document review and that charges against the accused will be filed after this phase is completed.

"You can't keep people behind bars, before a trial, for long (periods of time)," the top court remarked sharply in giving bail to Benoy Babu, the Regional General Manager. This is inappropriate.

While allowing the meeting, the court imposed restrictions, instructing Sisodia not to engage with the media or partake in any political activities during his release.

Additionally, the court extended MP Sanjay Singh's judicial custody until November 24, 2023 in the Delhi Excise policy money laundering case.

Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice SVN Bhatti, constituting a two-judge bench, were responsible for this decision, highlighting the doubts regarding the ₹338 crore transfer in their analysis.

Heaping praise on AAP volunteers, Kejriwal said, "The people of my constituency are all praise for our government as much as they are for our party's volunteers. Our volunteers don't come with any political background..."

The bench emphasized the need for prompt commencement of charge arguments and requested a timeline for the same.

The bench, comprising Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice SVN Bhatti, inquired about the origin of the alleged money received by Mr. Sisodia from what is referred to as the liquor group.
