New Delhi: The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear on Monday the plea of ​​AAP MLA Jaswant Singh Gajjan Majra challenging his arrest and remand by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering probe related to the bank fraud case.

A vacation bench of Justice CT Ravikumar and Justice Manoj Mishra is likely to hear the case.

The apex court had earlier refused to grant interim bail to the Punjab MLA to campaign for the Lok Sabha elections. The Punjab and Haryana High Court had also dismissed the petition challenging the arrest of the MLA, saying there was no illegality in it.

In May 2023, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) raided premises linked to Gajjan Majra in an alleged Rs 40 crore bank fraud case.

In September 2022, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) raided several premises linked to him as part of a money-laundering investigation in connection with an alleged bank loan fraud.

The ED team had seized Rs 32 lakh in cash, some mobile phones and hard drives.
