New Delhi: Jailed Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh is likely to be released from Tihar Jail on Wednesday, April 3, after the Supreme Court granted him bail in the Delhi excise policy-linked money laundering case. Sanjay Singh was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate and was granted bail after the ED conceded that it has no objections. However, the Supreme Court has put forth several conditions before granting bail to Sanjay Singh which he needs to fulfill while he remains out on bail during the course of the entire trial.
The Special counsel for ED said that there is a condition by the Supreme Court that Sanjay Singh will not speak to the media regarding this case. The Court granted bail to AAP MP Sanjay Singh on furnishing a bail bond of Rs 2 Lakh and one surety of the same amount. Sanjay Singh's wife has furnished the surety bond.
