Posted on 11th Oct 2022 03:04 pm by rohit kumar

The Supreme Court has issued notice to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on AAP leader Satyendar Jain's plea challenging the Delhi High Court order. A bench of Justice MR Shah and Justice Krishna Murari issued notice to the ED and fixed October 31 for further hearing of the matter. The Delhi High Court had dismissed the petition of Minister Satyendar Jain, in which he had challenged the order of the lower court to transfer the money laundering case against him to another court. The Principal District and Sessions Court of the court had allowed the ED's plea seeking the transfer of Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain to another judge in the money laundering case. Thereafter, the matter was transferred to Special Judge Vikas Dhal. The first case was heard by Special Judge Geetanjali Goel.

 

 

The case was registered in 2017

 

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had registered a case against Satyendra Jain in the money laundering case. Based on the registered case, the ED had registered a case against Jain and the other two persons under the Prevention of Corruption Act in 2017. Jain is accused of money laundering through four companies affiliated with him.

 

 

Jain had approached the Supreme Court regarding the possibility of favoritism

Jain had moved the high court challenging the September 23 order of Principal District and Sessions Judge Vinay Kumar Gupta transferring the money laundering case to another judge on the "possibility of bias". Jain is currently in jail in this case.
