A Prevention of Money laundering Act (PMlA) Court on Friday rejected the bail application of Maharashtra’s former Deputy Chief Minister and senior NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal, who is currently behind the bars in a money laundering case. Designated PMlA Court Judge P R Bhavake turned down Bhujbal’s bail plea after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) objected saying investigations were still on and he was getting proper treatment in a Government hospital. In his bail plea, sixty-nine-year-old Bhujbal had had sought bail on health grounds, saying he had multiple ailments, including diabetes, blood pressure, chronic asthma and blockages in heart. The senior NCP leader told the court that since he had already been in custody for the past two months and wanted to undergo treatment for his various ailments, he be granted bail. Bhujbal was arrested by the ED on March 14 in connection with two money laundering cases registered against him, his family members and associates. His nephew Sameer Bhujbal is currently in the judicial custody.
