The Supreme Court will hear Odisha Administrative Service officer Bijaya Ketan Sahoo’s plea for anticipatory bail in a money laundering case involving disproportionate assets. The case, initiated by the Enforcement Directorate, alleges unreported income funnelled into properties and investments. Orissa High Court previously refused anticipatory bail, citing a prima facie case. Subsequent summons have been issued, and a hearing is scheduled for June 24.
