The Aam Aadmi Party leader was arrested on May 300, 2022 by the Enforcement Directorate.
Influential person and possibility of tampering with evidence
The high court, while dismissing Jain's bail plea, stated that he is an influential person and may tamper with evidence. The court's decision was made after considering the arguments presented by the counsels for the ED and the AAP leader and two others.
Accusations of money laundering

They had challenged this order, and the high court had reserved the order on the bail pleas on March 21, 2023, after hearing arguments from both sides.
No illegality or infirmity in trial court's order
