The Delhi High Court on Tuesday (May 5, 2026) refused to grant bail to Leena Paulose in the ₹200 crore extortion case involving her husband, alleged conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar, but granted her reprieve in a related money laundering case.
"I have rejected the application in the MCOCA case but allowed it in (ED case)," said Justice Prateek Jalan while dealing with Ms. Paulose's bail pleas in the two cases probed by the Delhi police and Enforcement Directorate (ED).
The Delhi Police has booked Mr. Chandrashekar for allegedly duping the wives of former promoters of Ranbaxy, Shivinder Singh and Malvinder Singh, of ₹200 crore.
