In a recent development, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's request for interim bail on medical grounds in connection with a money laundering case has been rejected by Delhi's Rouse Avenue court. The court instead directed a comprehensive medical examination to address his health concerns.

Kejriwal's plea for interim bail was dismissed by the court, which emphasized that his campaigning activities and events suggested that he wasn't facing any life-threatening ailment. The court deemed his grounds for bail, citing diagnosis needs, as invalid, stating that such diagnostic tests could be conducted while in custody.

To address Kejriwal's health issues promptly, the court instructed the revival or reconstitution of the Medical Board of AIIMS, directing it to examine him and prescribe necessary diagnostic tests within three days. The jail authorities were directed to ensure swift conduct of the recommended tests and provide the prescribed treatment without delay.

Before surrendering at Tihar jail, Kejriwal had requested seven days from the court for a health investigation, a request which was not granted.

This decision by the court signifies a legal setback for Kejriwal in the ongoing money laundering case, highlighting the judiciary's emphasis on addressing his health concerns while ensuring due legal process.
