The Delhi High Court upheld Manish Sisodia’s 2020 election victory, ruling that mere registration of an FIR does not amount to a pending criminal case. Justice Jasmeet Singh clarified that disclosure is required only when charges are framed or a court takes cognizance of the offence.
Supreme Court urges all High Courts to frame rules mandating disclosure of prior criminal cases in bail applications. Also expunges harsh remarks against a judge, calling them “uncalled for” and passed without hearing him.
