“Former Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia Granted Weekly Visits to Ailing Wife Amidst Liquor Policy Case”

Manish Sisodia: In a recent development, former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister, Manish Sisodia, who has been in jail for over a year in connection with the Delhi Liquor scam, has been granted permission by the Rouse Avenue Court to meet his unwell wife and consult with doctors once a week. This marks a temporary relief for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader, who had previously received custody parole during Diwali last November to visit his ailing wife.

Background: Manish Sisodia’s legal woes stem from his alleged involvement in the Delhi Excise policy cases, as charged by both the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Despite facing rejection of his bail petitions by the Supreme Court, High Court, and trial court in the past, Sisodia has secured intermittent custody parole for compassionate reasons.

Current Development: The recent court decision allows Manish Sisodia to meet his ailing wife and consult with doctors once a week. This respite comes after his request to the court for custody parole was issued a notice by Special Judge MK Nagpal at Rouse Avenue Court on February 2, 2024. The court took note that the application comprises two parts – the first seeking regular bail (second bail application) and the second requesting custody parole for two days weekly to meet his ailing wife.

Allegations by Enforcement Directorate: The ED has alleged that Manish Sisodia’s activities have led to the generation of proceeds of crime amounting to approximately ₹622 crore. These accusations form the core of the legal battle against the former Deputy Chief Minister.

Conclusion: As Manish Sisodia navigates the complexities of the Delhi Liquor scam case, the recent court permission allowing him to meet his unwell wife weekly provides a temporary respite amidst the legal challenges he faces. The case remains a focal point in the ongoing legal landscape, with Sisodia seeking legal remedies to address the allegations against him.
