HC granted bail in a money laundering case where the accused was charged with misappropriating funds through fraudulent food packet delivery contracts. The accused, incarcerated for over one year, was granted relief considering: no chargesheet filed in predicate offense, trial unlikely to commence soon in both scheduled and PMLA offenses, and full cooperation during investigation.
