Sukesh Chandrasekhar granted bail in money laundering case, remains jailed
India
Sukesh Chandrasekhar, known for his high-profile scams, just got bail from a Delhi court in a money laundering case.
The judge pointed out that everyone deserves a speedy trial and personal freedom.
Still, Chandrasekhar isn't walking free yet. He's staying in jail because of other ongoing cases.
Bail requires ₹5L bond and sureties
To get out on bail, Chandrasekhar needs to put up a ₹5 lakh bond and matching sureties.
Even with this new bail, he's only cleared in 26 out of 31 cases: five are still hanging over him.
This latest case is part of a bigger investigation into alleged financial misconduct and alleged attempts to mess with election symbols, showing just how tangled his legal troubles are.
