Supreme Court Grants Interim Bail to Satyendar Jain on Medical Grounds

Amid reports of crumbling health, the Supreme Court on Tuesday, 6 May, granted interim bail for a period of six weeks to former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain on medical grounds.

In doing so, the apex court reportedly rejected the Enforcement Directorate's request that Jain should first be examined by a panel of doctors in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS).

Jain recently collapsed in Tihar Jail and had to be shifted to the ICU of a Delhi hospital.
