A |     New Delhi, Oct 10 (UNI) A Delhi Special Court on Tuesday adjourned the hearing in the matter registered under the provisions of Prevention Money Laundering Act against Delhi's Health Minister Satyendar Jain till October 18.

It was submitted on behalf of Jain that the petition challenging the transfer order passed by Principal District & Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (PC Act) was dismissed by High Court of Delhi. Jain's Counsel submitted that we have challenged the order of Delhi High Court in Supreme Court of India and now Supreme Court has agreed to hear the submissions in the plea of transfer the case from one Special Court to another Court. He sought the adjournment by submitting that to see the outcome of the said petition the matter of Jain may kindly be adjourned.



Special Judge Vikash Dhull after hearing the plea on behalf of Jain adjourned the matter for October 18, 2022 for further proceedings. The Court directed Superintendent, Tihar Jail to produce accused Satyendar Kumar Jain, Vaibhav Jain and Ankush Jain on October 18, 2022.



The Principal District & Sessions Court of Rouse Avenue, New Delhi on September 22 transferred the matter registered under the provisions of Prevention Money Laundering Act against Delhi's Health Minister Satyendar Jain from the Court of Special Judge Geetanjali Goel's to Special Judge Vikash Dhull.



Counsel for Jain challenged the order dated September 22 passed by Principal District & Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge (PC Act) (CBI) in Delhi High Court but the plea of Jain was dismissed by Delhi High Court and now the same in Apex Court.



Government Counsel for ED earlier submitted before The Principal District & Session Judge that Jain served as a Health Minister in Delhi may manage to get forged documents and can influence the doctors and Jail official. Jain faked his illness and admission to hospital.



Counsel for Jain opposed the application of ED by submitting that this is a malafide application to derail the trial and to prolong the custody of Jain. He contended that Jain is neither a Health Minister nor Jail Minister but is in jail and because the hospital where Jain was admitted under the control of Delhi Government is no ground to allege a bias in the case.



In this matter, ED had earlier opposed the bail application of Satyendar Jain by submitting that if bail granted he may influence the co-accused, witnesses and other documents related to the case.



Investigating Agency had arrested Satyendar Jain in this matter on May 30 under the provisions of PMLA and he is now in the judicial custody at Tihar.



Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in its chargesheet has alleged amassing assets to the tune of Rs 1.47 crore in Disproportionate Assets case while Enforcement Directorate has submitted the attachment of Rs 4.81 crore in connection with money laundering investigation.
