SC grants interim bail to Soumya Chaurasia in Money Laundering Case
The Free Press Journal|September 26, 2024
The Supreme Court on Wednesday granted interim bail to suspended Chhattisgarh civil servant Soumya Chaurasia, who has been in jail for 1 year and 9 months in connection with a money laundering case related to the coal scam.

The Court considered the extended time Chaurasia had already spent in custody and the fact that charges had yet to be framed.

Chaurasia, formerly the Deputy Secretary to ex-Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, had her third bail application rejected by the Chhattisgarh High Court on August 28, 2024. She challenged the decision before the Supreme Court, where a bench comprising Justices Surya Kant, Dipankar Datta, and Ujjal Bhuyan heard her plea.
