Satyendar Jain bail: After he was granted bail in a money laundering case, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Satyendar Jain said on Saturday that if there had been no democracy and Constitution, the Centre would have hanged him by now. 

While talking to the media after he was released from Tihar Jail on Friday, Jain said, "Had there been no democracy and Constitution, the central government would have hanged me by now. Arvind Kejriwal said that we will have to go to jail if we try to bring about a change. After going to jail, so many of our leaders always thought why do they want to break us? We thought a lot about it and we came to the conclusion that they just want to stop us and the change we brought. We were all arrested so that educated people who want to do something for the country do not come forward."

He further pointed out that it's been more than seven years since the case has been going on against him.
