Hemant Soren withdraws bail plea after SC pulls him up for 'suppressing facts'

Hemant Soren bail plea: The Supreme Court of India has declined to grant interim bail to former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren in a money laundering case filed by the Enforcement Directorate. The court refused to entertain the petition, citing Soren's lack of disclosure about the trial court's cognizance of the chargesheet. Soren's lawyer, Kapil Sibal, agreed to withdraw the application. The court will dismiss Soren's plea against arrest without going into merits, stating it would be damaging if the court went into details.
