The Supreme Court on Wednesday ordered the deletion of advocate Bansuri Swaraj’s name from its order granting bail to AAP leader Sanjay Singh after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) said her name got added to the list due to an “inadvertent error”.
A bench headed by Justice Sanjiv Khanna said, “Ok, we will correct the order.”
Advocate Zoheb Hussain, appearing for the ED, said Swaraj did not appear in the case nor did she represent the agency in the matter.
“Due to some inadvertent error, her name is reflected in the appearance slip,” Hussain said.
Bansuri Swaraj is a BJP candidate from the New Delhi parliamentary constituency for the Lok Sabha polls.
On Tuesday, the top court granted Singh, AAP’s Rajya Sabha MP, bail in a money laundering case related to the Delhi excise policy case after the ED said it had no objections.
Singh, who has been in jail for six months, was ordered to be released by a bench of Justice Sanjiv Khanna, Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice P B Varale.
