Anubrata Mondal moves Delhi HC against trial court order denying him bail

New Delhi, Jan 31 : Trinamool Congress leader Anubrata Mondal on Tuesday moved the Delhi High Court challenging a court order denying him bail in connection with the multi-crore cattle smuggling case in West Bengal.A single-judge bench of Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma was supposed to hear the matter but due to his unavailability in court, the matter has been listed for the next hearing on February 2.

On January 24, the special judge had passed the order finding no reason to give him bail.The EDs Special Public Prosecutor Nitesh Rana had said that Mondals bail application was without any merit.

The ED had arrested Mondal based on an FIR registered by the CBI in Kolkata against Satish Kumar, the then Commandant of Border Security Force.Mondal has recently filed a plea before the Delhi HC challenging his arrest, contending he was not provided with grounds of arrest as mandatory under Section 19 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.A special CBI court in Asansol had denied bail to Mondal.On December 21, 2022, Mondal had moved the Delhi HC challenging issuance of production warrant by Rouse Avenue courts in EDs case.

On December 19, Rouse Avenue courts permitted the ED to bring him to Delhi.Mondals counsel Kapil Sibal had earlier approached the Delhi HC against EDs bid to bring Mondal to Delhi, but the HC referred the case back to the Rouse Avenue courts.
