Aam Aam Party (AAP) leader Satyendar Jain, who was hospitalised on Thursday after fainting in the bathroom of Tihar jail has lost 35 kilos of weight while in jail and has had 2 accidents due to his ill health which got him hospitalised, claimed All India Trinamool Congress leader Saket Gokhale.
Gokhale went on to slam ASG SV Raju, who appeared on behalf of the ED, opposing Jain's his bail calling it a shameless act. The ED lawyer has reportedly said that Mr. Jain “lost weight because he’s a Jain & does fasting”. "It is not only disgusting but also inhuman that, as part of Modi govt’s political vendetta, ED would make such a disgusting argument that risks the life of Mr. Jain," Gokhale said in a tweet.
The Supreme Court granted Jain interim bail on Friday for six weeks on medical grounds in the money laundering case.
