NEW DELHI: The bail plea of Satyendra Jain, Delhi minister who was arrested in a money laundering case by the Enforcement Directorate, was dismissed by a Delhi court on Saturday.
The bail was denied by Special Judge Geetanjli Goel who said that the stage was not fit for grant of bail to him.
"The Bail application is dismissed," the judge said. The order reversal came from the court after hearing the arguments of Jain and ED. Jain was arrested by the ED in a money laundering case.
Currently in judicial custody, Jain was arrested under the criminal sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
After his arrest, all the portfolios held by him were handed over to Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.
