New Delhi, July 16

The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the CBI and the ED to respond to former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s petitions seeking bail in corruption and money laundering cases linked to the Delhi excise policy ‘scam’.

Issuing notice to the probe agencies on the senior AAP leader’s petitions, a three-judge Bench led by Justice BR Gavai posted the matter for hearing on July 29.

Sisodia, who has been denied bail by the top court in the past, has sought to revive his petitions.

Sisodia was arrested by the CBI on February 26, 2023, for his alleged role in the “scam” and he resigned from the Delhi cabinet two days later.
