Money Laundering Case: In a money laundering case, a Delhi court on Saturday granted interim bail to Poonam Jain, the wife of Delhi minister Satyendar Jain.
Poonam Jain was granted temporary release by Rouse Avenue Court on a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh. It is worth mentioning that in the money laundering case, ED has made Satyendra Jain as well as Poonam Jain an accused. The case's subsequent hearing is scheduled for August 20.
Earlier on May 30, Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case.
A month ago, the ED attached assets worth Rs 4.81 crore belonging to the family of an Aam Aadmi Party minister in a disproportionate assets case.
Earlier, a Delhi court took cognizance of the chargesheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate against Satyendar Jain, his wife and eight others in a money laundering case.
The order of the court had said that in view of the material on record, it can be said that there is prima facie sufficient evidence about the involvement of the accused.
In view of this, cognizance is taken of offense under section 3 of PMLA punishable under section 4 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002.
