A plea was filed in the Supreme Court on Monday challenging the Delhi High Court order dismissing a petition seeking to declare AAP leader Satyendar Jain, arrested in a money laundering case, a "person with unsound mind" and disqualifying him as an MLA and minister.

The high court, in its August 16 order, had said based upon the averments made in the writ petition filed before it and in exercise of jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution, it cannot declare Jain a "person with unsound mind" and disqualify him from being a member of the Legislative Assembly or a Minister in the Delhi Government.
