Delhi Excise Policy Case: Manish Sisodia To Be Released After 17 Months In Jail | ABP News

Delhi Minister Atishi's reaction came after the Supreme Court granted bail to Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia. Minister Atishi became emotional while addressing a programme, stating that today, truth has won, and the students of Delhi have won. She added that Sisodia was imprisoned because he provided good education to poor children.

Sisodia's bail comes with the condition of providing personal sureties of ₹10 lakh each and surrendering his passport. The Supreme Court's comments indicated a favorable outcome for Sisodia, given the delay in the investigation. Last October, when Sisodia initially sought bail, the Supreme Court denied it, noting that the investigation was expected to take 6-8 months. As the investigation continued to drag on, Sisodia approached the Supreme Court again, which acknowledged that delays should not be the responsibility of the accused, leading to the granting of bail.
