He got bail in a money laundering case in December but has been languishing in prison for more than a month since then due to bureaucratic delays.

#SiddiqueKappan got bail but is still not free
3 days after he was granted bail by Allahabad HC in Money Laundering case he remains in jail because he has to furnish a personal bond & two local, reliable sureties. To complete the process they need to wait for Courts to reopen

Who will pay for the years lost? Who will pay the court charges?
Who will pay for the unexplainable
mental agony?
Has anyone been held accountable?
