Supreme Court grants bail to Manish Sisodia in Delhi excise policy case

 

Former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was granted bail by the Supreme Court Friday morning – nearly 18 months after he was arrested by the CBI in the alleged liquor policy case.

Mr Sisodia was arrested by the CBI on February 26, 2023, and by the Enforcement Directorate less than two weeks later. He has now been granted bail in both cases, with an irate Supreme Court stating he cannot stay in jail indefinitely while the prosecution works to a trial date.
