No HC relief for ex-Jharkhand minister Enos Ekka

Former Jharkhand minister Enos Ekka, jailed in a disproportionate assets case, failed to get any relief from the High Court as it rejected his plea for interim bail.

A bench of Justice AK Chaudhary dismissed his interlocutory application.

A CBI court had convicted the former minister, his wife, and brother in disproportionate assets case and awarded them seven-year jail terms each. They have moved the High Court against the CBI court order.
