New Delhi [India], July 16 (ANI): The Supreme Court judge, Sanjay Kumar, recused himself from hearing the bail plea of Hyderabad-based businessman Abhishek Boinpally, an accused in the Delhi Liquor Policy money laundering case.
The matter was listed before a bench of justices Sanjiv Khanna and Sanjay Kumar.
After Sanjay Kumar recused himself from hearing the court, Sanjiv Khanna directed it to relist the plea in the first week of August. The court also made it clear that interim bail granted to Boinpally will continue till the next date of hearing.
On March 20, the top court granted Boinpally five weeks of interim bail. Later, it was extended till today.
The court was hearing the bail plea of Boinpally, who has also challenged the Delhi High Court order refusing his plea challenging his arrest in the case.
The Enforcement Directorate has charged Abhishek Boinpally along with various accused, including Vijay Nair, Sharath Reddy, Binoy Babu, Amit Arora and various companies. ED has also arrested various political politicians, including AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh and BRS leader K Kavitha.
In the case, the ED and the CBI had alleged that irregularities were committed while modifying the excise policy, undue favours were extended to licence holders, the licence fee was waived or reduced and the L-1 licence was extended without the competent authority’s approval.
The beneficiaries diverted “illegal” gains to the accused officials and made false entries in their books of account to evade detection. (ANI)
