The Supreme Court on Tuesday reserved for September 29 its order on the centre’s plea seeking cancellation of the bail granted to alleged money launderer Hasan Ali Khan, who is described as the country’s top tax evader.
Justice Altamas Kabir and justice S.S. Nijjar reserved the order after hearing arguments from the two sides. Hasan Ali, who is being investigated by the Directorate of Enforcement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act for allegedly stashing away money in tax havens, was granted bail by the Bombay high court August 12. The Supreme Court August 16 stayed the Bombay high court order.
