A trial court had earlier dismissed the bail petition of Satyendar Jain.
The Delhi High Court on Thursday issued a notice to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Delhi's jailed Minister Satyendar Jain, in a money laundering case.
"I have appeared before the ED on seven occasions. I have cooperated and participated in the investigation. I was arrested five years down the line in 2022," submitted Sr Advocate N Hariharan while appearing for Mr Jain.
After noting down the submissions, Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma on Thursday sought a response from the ED within two weeks and fixed the matter for December 20, 2022.
On November 17, the trial court had dismissed the bail petition of Satyendar Jain. He was arrested on May 30 under sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act by the Enforcement Directorate and is presently in judicial custody in the case.
