Byju Raveendran's lawyer says Singapore High Court has stayed jail sentence against founder

Singapore High Court has stayed the committal and surrender provisions of its earlier contempt order against Byju Raveendran, meaning the company's founder is no longer required to surrender and no jail term will take effect while the matter is sub judice, according to a press release shared by Raveendran's lawyer.

The stay, granted on June 10 as per the company's lawyers, comes after Raveendran moved court against the May 25 order that sentenced him to six months in jail in a matter linked to document disclosure and asset-related obligations. This marked another escalation in the legal disputes surrounding Raveendran and the collapsed edtech firm.
