The Delhi High Court has called upon the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to provide its stance regarding the bail application of Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui, the chairman of Al Falah University in Faridabad, who is embroiled in a money laundering case. Justice Saurabh Banerjee issued a notice to the ED, mandating a response to Siddiqui's regular bail plea, which is scheduled for a hearing in July. In the interim, the court will consider Siddiqui's request for temporary bail at the end of this month. Siddiqui was arrested on November 18, 2025, following allegations that he was involved in generating illicit funds amounting to ₹415.10 crore (approximately $50 million USD) from student fees between 2018 and 2025. The ED's investigation is rooted in two FIRs filed by the Delhi Police Crime Branch, which claim that the university misled students regarding its NAAC accreditation and UGC recognition. Additionally, the university has faced scrutiny due to its connection to a 'white-collar terror' investigation, which involved arrests related to a bombing incident outside the Red Fort. Siddiqui had previously been granted interim bail on humanitarian grounds but this decision was challenged by the ED in the High Court.
