Arvind Kejriwal's Bail : Live Updates From Supreme Court

Singhvi: If at all I have come to HC, I am losing extra bite of the cherry. Every co-accused is on bail

J Kant: Order reserved. Thank you. 

Singhvi: In the impugned order, not one of my cases is cited, considered.

J Kant: probably now you are on the HC judge...now case merits

ASG: All co-accused have gone to Trial Court. He's a special person.

Singhvi: 5th July, 2024, was when I got notice from HC. Interim bail issue was heard on merits. On 29th, full day arguments on regular bail and order reserved.

Singhvi: I will take few more minutes. Kejriwal's release was semi-permanent. No conditionality till main matter decided. Now, the issue why he should not be sent back to trial court

Singhvi: There was no inadvertent mistake. It was deliberate. It was not a typo.

J Kant: This bail matter has taken the whole day.

Singhvi: Your lordships will not read any judgment in a manner to override S.41, S.41A CrPC. Now this typo in the order...

Singhvi: It's a command to produce before court. As opposed to an arrest warrant. Look at what the court records. They say CBI has made oral request for only production warrant. No arrest. Next day, when he is brought, they arrest in court in the second session

Singhvi: On 24th, an application is moved, which says your client I am giving S.41A. On 25th, he abandons the arrest application. Makes oral request for production warrant. It is sent to a prison officer.

Singhvi: CBI is obsessed with everything except CrPC. He says S.41A is not required when person is in custody, alternatively there is deemed S.41A through court.

Singhvi: Please try to relate it to (b),(c),(d) in any which way. There is another application post-arrest...which says he remained non-cooperative and evasive.
