SC grants interim bail to Kejriwal in ED case

However, he will remain in jail due to an earlier arrest by CBI

The Supreme Court on Friday granted interim bail to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a money laundering case by Enforcement Directorate (ED) in alleged excise policy scam but he will remain in jail as the CBI had arrested him in a related matter.

A bench of justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta referred to a larger bench, preferably of five judges, for in-depth consideration of three questions on the aspect of “need and necessity of arrest” under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
