The Supreme Court rejects Satyendra Jain's bail request; he has been on medical bail for ten months and is ordered to surrender immediately in a money laundering case.

Today, the Supreme Court heard a hearing regarding Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and former Delhi government minister Satyendar Jain's regular bail. Jain's bail request was denied by the court, and they mandated his immediate surrender.

Judges AS Bopanna and Bela M. Trivedi heard Satyendra and co-accused Ankush Jain's bail request in the money laundering case. Jain is released on medical bail on May 26, 2023.

The court had granted Satyendra an extension of his temporary bail until October 9 on September 25. It was stated during the previous hearing that his attorney, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, would be unable to attend the courtroom because of pressing work. The court had granted an extension of the temporary bail due to medical reasons in this case.

On May 30, 2022, the Enforcement Department (ED) detained Satyendra Jain in relation to the money laundering case involving the Delhi Liquor Policy scam. According to the ED, he had used four businesses connected to him to launder money.

Sanjay Singh and Sisodia were also detained in this case, and Kejriwal received nine summonses.
The Delhi liquor policy scam led to the arrests of Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh by the ED following Satyendar Jain. In addition, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has received nine summonses from the ED asking him to appear in court on the matter. Kejriwal has not yet shown up for an investigation by the investigating body. Rouse Avenue Court in Delhi also hosted a hearing on this. But Kejriwal was given bail by the court.
AAP leader Satyendar Jain slipped and fell in the Tihar Jail restroom early on May 25, 2023. Deendayal Upadhyay Hospital admitted him. He was moved to Loknayak Jai Prakash Narayan Hospital (LNJP) and kept on oxygen support after his condition worsened in the afternoon.

Jain had visited the hospital three times in the last week. He was brought to Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital earlier on May 22. After that, he experienced back issues. He was taken to Deendayal Hospital on May 20th as well because of the same issue.
