The Supreme Court granted bail to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia, ending his 17-month detention over alleged corruption linked to the Delhi excise policy. Arrested on February 26, 2023, by the CBI, and later by the ED, Sisodia had been denied bail by lower courts. The Supreme Court criticized the delay in his trial, emphasizing bail as the norm rather than detention. Sisodia must furnish Rs 2 lakh in bail bonds, surrender his passport, and report to authorities as required. AAP leaders welcomed the decision, praising the court’s move.
