Money laundering: Ex-Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain walks out of prison after bail, Delhi CM greets him

New Delhi/IBNS: Former Delhi minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Satyendar Jain walked out of the Tihar jail on Friday evening after he was granted bail by a local court in a money laundering case.

Jain, arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) over two years ago, was welcomed by Delhi Chief Minister Atishi, among others.

In 2023, the Supreme Court had granted him interim bail on medical grounds.

He returned to prison in 2024 after the apex court denied him regular bail in March.

Former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and his deputy Manish Sisodia were granted bail recently.

Both were accused of money laundering in framing a new liquor policy for New Delhi.

Kejriwal quit as CM after he was released from prison.

Atishi took oath as Delhi CM after Kejriwal stepped down from the post.
