In the liquor scam case, the Supreme Court granted interim bail to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal. However, the Supreme Court’s larger bench has been tasked with handling the case of his ED arrest.
The CBI case against Chief Minister Kejriwal will now be heard by a three-member bench. It was informed that Kejriwal would stay incarcerated until the larger bench’s hearing.
The Supreme Court‘s bench of Justices Sanjeev Khanna and Dipankar Dutta has forwarded the petition contesting Kejriwal’s arrest to the larger bench. Kejriwal’s plea will now be heard by a Supreme Court bench consisting of three judges. In this instance, the Chief Justice will select three judges. Kejriwal has been granted temporary bail while the matter is still ongoing.
Kejriwal will thus be unable to leave prison for the time being. Although he has been granted bail in the ED case, he is presently under the CBI‘s custody. He will stay behind bars for the time being in such a case.
