On Friday, the judge had directed the Tihar Jail Superintendent to take Manish Sisodia to his residence where he was allowed to meet his ailing wife.
The Delhi High Court on Saturday sought a report from the LNJP hospital on the health condition of AAP leader Manish Sisodia's ailing wife as it reserved its order on his interim bail plea for six weeks in a money laundering case arising from the alleged excise policy scam.
Senior advocate Mohit Mathur, appearing for Mr Sisodia, told Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma that pursuant to the court's directions passed on Friday, the former Delhi deputy chief minister was taken in custody to meet his wife earlier in the day but the latter's health condition deteriorated and was taken to be LNJP hospital before he could reach home.
Mr Mathur thus urged the court to release Mr Sisodia, his sick wife's sole caretaker, on a temporary basis.
"Arguments heard. Order reserved. Let a report be called from LNJP and be filed by today evening," said Justice Sharma after a hearing held on a court holiday.
