New Delhi (PTI): Jailed former Delhi minister and AAP leader Satyendar Jain on Thursday moved a city court seeking bail in a money laundering case.
Special Judge Rakesh Syal issued notice to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and asked it to file its response to Jain's application by September 25, when the court will hear the matter.
Jain was produced before the court after expiry of his judicial custody granted earlier. The judge extended his custody further.
