Money laundering case: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to grant interim bail to former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam. Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader sought bail for Lok Sabha elections campaigning and cited the recent release of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal from jail as an example.
The apex court also sought the Enforcement Directorate’s response by May 17 on a plea of Soren, who has challenged his arrest in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam.
