The Supreme Court granted interim bail to Hyderabad businessman Abhishek Boinpally, who is facing charges in a money laundering case related to the Delhi excise policy scam. The decision was made due to the health of Boinpally’s wife.
Boinpally will be allowed interim bail for five weeks and must surrender his passport. He is also restricted to staying in the National Capital Region (NCR) except for travel to Hyderabad. Additionally, he must provide his mobile number to Enforcement Directorate officials for communication.
The case is scheduled to be heard again in the week starting April 29. Boinpally has been in custody since October 2022 and had appealed against the dismissal of his bail application by the Delhi High Court in July 2023. The Supreme Court previously denied him bail due to the seriousness of the allegations and evidence presented.
The bench, led by Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Dipankar Datta, made these decisions in the interest of justice and will review the case further in the coming weeks.
