New Delhi. The judicial custody of Manish Sisodia has been extended in the case related to excise policy. Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court has extended Sisodia’s judicial custody till May 12.
Earlier, on April 17, the court had extended Sisodia’s custody for 10 days till April 27. After completion of this, the court extended the judicial custody while hearing the case.
Sisodia, who was kept in judicial custody in the Excise Policy case, had also submitted a bail petition in the court, citing his wife’s ill health and his son being abroad.
Sisodia’s wife is suffering from ‘autoimmune disorder’ and has been admitted to a private hospital here. Seema Sisodia, 49, has been admitted to the neurology department of Indraprastha Apollo Hospital and is being examined.
She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a severe autoimmune disease, in 2000. She is being treated in a private hospital for the last 23 years. It is generally believed that the effects of the disease intensify with the passage of time and other factors such as increase in physical and emotional stress.
