Jailed AAP leader Manish Sisodia allowed to meet ailing wife once a week

Former Delhi Minister and jailed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia was on Monday granted permission by the Rouse Avenue Court to meet his ailing wife once a week in custody parole.

In his application, Sisodia had sought permission to meet his wife twice every week. According to Sisodia’s application, his wife had been suffering from multiple sclerosis for the past 20 years.

Manish Sisodia was arrested in February 2023 in connection with the alleged liquor policy scam.

His bail applications have consistently been denied, with the Supreme Court recently rejecting his plea on the grounds of an established money trail in the case.

The hearing on Sisodia’s regular bail plea will next take place on February 12.
