AAP leader and former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia on Saturday paid tributes to Mahatma Gandhi at the Rajghat memorial, a day after he was released from jail in the Delhi excise policy case.
He reached the memorial after offering prayers at the Hanuman temple in Connaught Place. Sisodia was accompanied by several Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders, including MP Sanjay Singh and ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj.
The Supreme Court on Friday gave Sisodia bail in corruption and money laundering cases linked to the alleged excise policy “scam” and said his long incarceration of 17 months without trial had deprived him of the right to speedy justice.
