Supreme Court order to ED to furnish reasons in Arvind Kejriwal case applies prospectively: Delhi High Court

The Delhi High Court has clarified that the Supreme Court's recent directive mandating that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) must provide written grounds for arrest to individuals applies prospectively, meaning it will be effective from the date of the Supreme Court's order onwards. The High Court's judgment ensures that ongoing investigations by the ED are not unduly disrupted by the retrospective application of this new procedural requirement, while also establishing that all future arrests made by the ED must comply with the enhanced procedural safeguards aimed at ensuring greater transparency and accountability in PMLA cases.
