The Delhi High Court, on Monday, 5 June, denied interim bail to former Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia in connection with the ‘excise-policy case’.
The court did, however, reportedly allow the former deputy CM to visit his ailing wife, between 10 am and 5 pm on any day as per his wife's convenience.
According to Bar and Bench, Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma said:
"This Court finds itself very hard to persuade to grant bail to Manish Sisodia. However, we direct that he be taken to the residence or the hospital where Mrs Sisodia is. He be taken to the hospital/residence between 10 am and 5 pm.”
