Satyendar Jain Granted Bail After 18-Month Incarceration

The former Delhi health minister's release comes amid allegations of political targeting and a stalled trial process.

Satyendar Jain, an AAP leader, was released from Tihar Jail after being granted bail in a money laundering case by a Delhi court.
The court cited Jain's prolonged detention and the significant delay in trial proceedings as reasons for granting bail.
Jain was accused of acquiring disproportionate assets and laundering money through companies linked to him, charges he denies.
AAP leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, allege that Jain's arrest was politically motivated to hinder the party's initiatives.
The Enforcement Directorate opposed the bail, fearing Jain might influence witnesses, but the court prioritized his right to liberty.
