Arvind Kejriwal’s request for an expedited hearing to extend his temporary bail of seven days is denied by the Supreme Court.

Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, requested an urgent hearing on Tuesday, but the Supreme Court vacation bench declined to grant his request for a seven-day extension of his interim parole due to medical reasons. The Chief Justice of India should decide whether to list the plea, according to the vacation bench.

On June 2, Arvind Kejriwal, who was detained in Tihar Jail on suspicion of money laundering related to the now-canceled Delhi excise scheme, is scheduled to turn himself up.

Senior attorney Abhishek Singhvi, representing the chief minister of Delhi, made submissions that were noted by a vacation bench made up of Justices JK Maheshwari and KV Viswanathan. The bench stated that the “Honourable CJI” would decide whether to list the interim plea because the judgement in the main matter has been reserved.

The bench questioned Abhishek Singhvi about why, last week, Arvind Kejriwal’s plea was not brought up for urgent listing while Justice Dipankar Datta, a member of the main bench led by Justice Sanjiv Khanna and responsible for granting the chief minister’s interim bail, was occupying the vacation bench.

On May 10, the Supreme Court granted Arvind Kejriwal temporary bail for a period of 21 days, allowing him to participate in the Lok Sabha elections of 2024. It did, however, prevent him from going to his office or the secretariat in Delhi and signing official documents unless it was absolutely required to have the lieutenant governor’s assent.

The application asked for an extension of the temporary bail, which expires on June 1, on the grounds that the chief minister must go through certain medical examinations.

Since his “sudden and unexplained weight loss, coupled with high ketone levels” are symptomatic of kidney, major cardiac problems, and even cancer, Arvind Kejriwal has requested an extension to undergo a number of medical tests, including a PET-CT scan.

The issue concerns purported corruption and money laundering during the creation and implementation of the excise policy for 2021–2022 that the Delhi government ultimately decided to abandon.
