The Supreme Court on September 15 deferred hearing for October 4 on the bail pleas of AAP leader Manish Sisodia in two Delhi excise policy cases being probed by the CBI and ED. A bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and SVN Bhatti adjourned the matter after senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for Sisodia, submitted that he needs two to three hours to argue the matter.
"Although I am in jail. We [both sides] have agreed. The hearing will take 2-3 hours at least on my side. This matter requires urgent attention," Mr. Singhvi said.
Additional Solicitor General S.V. Raju agreed to his submission.
