During the proceedings, the ED questioned the maintainability of Sisodia’s bail application, arguing that simultaneous regular bail pleas cannot be entertained in two different courts simultaneously. The ED contended that the regular bail plea should not be heard until the curative petition is pending in the Supreme Court.
In response, Sisodia’s lawyer argued that the investigative agency failed to produce any court order in support of the curative petition during the hearing. The lawyer also highlighted that the ED had assured the Supreme Court that the trial would be completed within 6 to 8 months, yet the trial has not commenced yet.
