Delhi High Court reserves order on Sisodia’s bail in excise policy case

New Delhi (IANS) | The Delhi High Court on Thursday reserved its verdict on Manish Sisodia’s bail plea. The CBI is probing the Delhi Excise scam case. The senior Aam Aadmi Party leader had approached the High Court on April 3 seeking bail on the grounds of his wife’s illness.

Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma directed the jail superintendent to provide video conferencing facility to Sisodia so that he could talk to his wife every alternate day between 3 to 4 pm as per jail rules.

The CBI had on Wednesday opposed the bail plea arguing that the former deputy chief minister was in power and had political clout.

Additional Solicitor General (ASG) S.V. Raju appeared on behalf of the investigating agency. He said that Sisodia controlled various departments, including Excise, and deliberately destroyed some evidence and a mobile phone on the day the case was referred to the CBI by the LG.

The CBI also referred to a missing file relating to the documents before Justice Sharma’s bench and said that it might have gone missing as it contained some comments which were against them.

The ASG said: Our submission is that the file was destroyed or it went missing. We have evidence to show that the last one was handed over to him. There was a cabinet note in it.

Earlier, a Delhi court on Monday extended Sisodia’s judicial custody till May 23 in a case being probed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

In the case being probed by the CBI, a Delhi court had extended Sisodia’s judicial custody till May 12.
