ED challenges in SC bail granted by HC to Shivakumar in money laundering case

NEWDELHI: The Enforcement Directorate moved the Supreme Court Friday challenging the Delhi High Court decision granting bail to Karnataka Congress leader D K Shivakumar in a money laundering case.

A lawyer associated with the case said that Special Leave Petition against the October 23 verdict giving relief to Shivakumar has been filed.

He was arrested by the ED on September 3 and walked out of the Tihar Jail on Wednesday evening.

He was in Judicial custody as the trial court had denied him bail in the case.

The High Court on Wednesday granted him bail saying he cannot tamper with the evidence as the documents are with the investigating agencies. (AGENCIES)
