Supreme Court: “We Won’t Shy Away from Acknowledging Mistakes”

Supreme Court Reconsiders ED’s Protection Order in Money Laundering Case

The Supreme Court has granted the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) the ability to recall a previous order that had protected certain accused from coercive action in a money laundering case until their petitions were resolved by the High Court. The ED argued that it had not been heard before the order was issued on July 4, 2023.

Justices Sanjay Kumar and Aravind Kumar noted that the ED’s application to be included in the proceedings was approved only on that day. The earlier order had directed the petitioners to seek relief from the respective High Courts while simultaneously granting them protection from coercive measures until those matters were concluded.
