Delhi High Court to Announce Verdict on Arvind Kejriwal’s Bail Today

The Enforcement Directorate has petitioned the Delhi High Court to stop the trial court’s ruling granting Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal regular bail in the excise policy case. The Delhi High Court will rule on this motion today. Arvind Kejriwal, who was detained by the Enforcement Directorate in March in relation to the excise policy case, was granted bail by the Rouse Avenue court in Delhi on Thursday. But the following day, the Enforcement Directorate filed a motion with the Delhi High Court to stay the trial court’s ruling.

Later, the Delhi High Court put a temporary hold on Kejriwal’s release as it considered the ED’s appeal. Kejriwal filed a motion against the temporary stay with the Supreme Court on Saturday. If the court hadn’t suspended the ruling of the lower court, the AAP leader would have been free to leave the Tihar jail on Friday. According to the agency, the trial court’s ruling was unfair and irrational. It also says it wasn’t given enough time to make its case.

On Monday, Kejriwal’s legal representative submitted written arguments to the high court, arguing that the ED’s claims are “palpably wrong, misleading, and tantamount to subterfuge and misrepresentation.”. “The ED’s persistent claims that it was not given a fair hearing chance and/or that not all of its claims had been addressed should be dismissed right away. As mentioned, the ruling granting bail addresses all pertinent arguments made by both parties, and the reasons for the issuance of release accurately demonstrate the Learned Court’s appropriate and proper consideration of all important factors,” the speaker said.

The arguments went on to state that Kejriwal feels deeply wronged by the temporary stay. He maintained that the trial court’s ruling was sound. According to the statement, the decision was made after careful consideration of the arguments and claims submitted by each side. The attorney for the AAP leader submitted a motion on Monday to the Supreme Court allowing Kejriwal to be freed until the high court’s decision on ED’s plea. He went on to say that Kejriwal poses no flight danger. The Supreme Court said on Monday that it would prefer to wait for the high court’s decision before scheduling a hearing on Kejriwal’s plea for June 26. Additionally, the Delhi High Court’s temporary stay was deemed exceptional by the court.
