  • Bail granted in the view of ongoing Lok Sabha elections 

10 May 2024

The Supreme Court granted interim bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal until June 1, providing relief amidst the ongoing legal proceedings. Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta presided over the hearing, considering the ongoing Lok Sabha elections. 

A day earlier, the Enforcement Directorate opposed Kejriwal's bail stating that "interim bail on grounds of election campaigning is neither a constitutional nor a fundamental right."

 An interim bail till June 1 means Kejriwal will be out of jail when Delhi votes on May 25. On June 2, Kejriwal will have to surrender. He will be in jail on June 4, the counting and the result day.

Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped excise policy.
