New Delhi [India], April 18 (ANI): The Supreme Court on Thursday extended until May 8 interim bail to businessman Abhishek Boinpally, accused in a money laundering case relating to alleged Delhi excise policy irregularities.
A bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta while extending the interim bail of Boinpally stated in the order, "The matter is taken on board. Interim bail was granted by an earlier order dated. Will continue till the next date of hearing which is May 8."
Boinpally is a former director of Robin Distilleries LLP and an alleged middleman among the many people being investigated in the Delhi Liquor Policy case.
He was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in October 2022 and later Enforcement Directorate (ED) took him into custody.
The ED has chargesheeted Boinpally along with various accused including Vijay Nair, Sharath Reddy, Binoy Babu, Amit Arora and various companies.
ED has also arrested various politicians including Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh and BRS leader K Kavitha.
In the case, the ED and the CBI had alleged that irregularities were committed while modifying the Excise Policy, undue favours were extended to licence holders, the licence fee was waived or reduced and the L-1 licence was extended without the competent authority's approval.
The beneficiaries diverted "illegal" gains to the accused officials and made false entries in their books of account to evade detection. (ANI)
