CBI opposes Sisodia's interim bail plea over wife's illness, says he suppressed fact she has been discharged from hospital

New Delhi, May 4 (PTI) The CBI Thursday opposed a plea by former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia seeking interim bail in the Delhi excise policy case to take care of his ailing wife, claiming he suppressed the fact that she has already been discharged from hospital.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) said Sisodia’s wife has already been discharged from the hospital but this material fact was not mentioned in his interim bail plea. According to the discharge memo, it said, her condition has improved.

However, Sisodia’s counsel claimed there was no suppression of facts and the mentioning document placed before the court for urgent listing disclosed his wife has been discharged from the hospital but she needs constant care.
