Today, former Delhi minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Satyendar Jain moved Supreme Court today seeking bail in a money laundering case against him.

He challenged the Delhi High Court order dismissing his bail plea in the money laundering case against him.

He has been lodged in Tihar Jail since June, last year.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had initiated a money-laundering investigation on the basis of the First Information Report registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on August 24, 2017, under several sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 against Satyendar Jain, Poonam Jain, Ajit Prasad Jain, Sunil Kumar Jain, Vaibhav Jain and Ankush Jain.

The CBI filed a chargesheet on December 3, 2018, against Satyendar Kumar Jain, Poonam Jain, Ajit Prasad Jain, Sunil Kumar Jain, Vaibhav Jain and Ankush Jain.
