The Delhi High Court has issued a temporary halt on the trial court’s decision to grant bail to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the money laundering case associated with the purported excise scam.
The decision was made following an urgent plea submitted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), which contended that it was not provided with sufficient time to contest the bail and asserted that the trial court’s ruling was flawed. The court’s halt on Kejriwal’s release will continue until it reviews and rules on the ED’s appeal to reverse the lower court’s judgment. Kejriwal’s legal representatives, on the other hand, characterized the lower court’s ruling as a discretionary decision made after due process.

On Thursday, the Rouse Avenue Court has granted regular bail to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal in the money laundering case. The vacation judge Nyay Bindu of Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court provided the bail upon furnishing a bail bond of ₹1 lakh, despite opposition from the ED.
The ED had requested the court to delay the bail bond process for 48 hours to allow them time to challenge the order in the High Court. However, the court declined this request and stated that the bail order had not been stayed.
Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on March 21, shortly before the parliamentary elections. Later, on May 10, the Supreme Court granted him interim bail until June 1 to allow him to campaign for the Lok Sabha elections.
