The Supreme Court has declined the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) appeal against the Jharkhand High Court's decision to grant bail to Chief Minister Hemant Soren in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam. On July 29, a Bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan upheld the High Court's judgment, describing it as 'well-reasoned'. The ED had challenged the High Court's order, but the Supreme Court found no reason to interfere, affirming the bail granted to Soren.
