On the other hand, the Additional Solicitor General SV Raju appearing for the Enforcement Directorate submitted before the court that Jain submits himself to AIIMS for independent evaluation in the meantime, thus, I have my doubts about the evolution. The said court also asked that the medical records of Jain need to be brought on record first and has extended the interim bail granted until the further orders are made. The Apex Court in the case observed and has granted interim bail to Jain for the period of six weeks to get treated in a private hospital of his choice on May 26, 2023.
Adding to it, the bench stated that Jain shall not go to the media in order to make any statement on any issue and that he shall not attempt to influence the witnesses.
