“Go To High Court”: Supreme Court On Manish Sisodia’s Challenge To Arrest

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Tuesday approached Supreme Court for bail in the liquor policy case. The court initially observed that the arrested AAP leader has remedies under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) to approach the Delhi High Court for bail and seek the quashing of the FIR.

However, Abhishek Singhvi – Mr Sisodia’s lawyer cited the Supreme Court’s judgment in the Vinod Dua case as the reason why they approached the Supreme Court. After this, Chief Justice Chandrachud said they will hear the matter this evening itself.

The CBI on Sunday evening arrested Mr Sisodia in connection with alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped liquor policy for 2021-22.
