The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Enforcement Directorate whether a bail condition imposed by the Delhi High Court on an accused to share the Google Maps pin of his location with the police amounts to violation of his right to privacy.
The High Court had granted bail to Raman Bhuraria, an auditor, on February 8 this year. He was arrested in connection with a money laundering probe over an alleged financial irregularity of ₹3,269 crore against Shakti Bhog Foods Ltd.
The High Court had imposed several bail conditions, including that Mr. Bhuraria “drop a Google pin location from his mobile phone to the Investigating Officer concerned which shall be kept operational throughout his bail.”
