SC refuses anticipatory bail to AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan, asks him to appear before ED on Apr 18
The bench said that it was not inclined to issue a notice on the plea for anticipatory bail as it has declined it.
A special court here on Monday sent Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut to the custody of Enforcement Directorate for 3 days till August 4.
Special PMLA Court Special Judge M. G. Deshpande pronounced the order as Raut was produced by the ED after he was arrested here early this morning.
While the ED’s Special Public Prosecutor Hiten Venegaonkar sought 8 days custody, Raut’s lawyer Ashok Mundargi opposed it on various grounds, including the health problems of his client who was a cardiac patient.
