<p>Holding aloft flags and cheering loudly, crowds of AAP supporters waited to welcome Manish Sisodia as stepped out of jail on Friday evening.</p>
<p>The Supreme Court had on Friday granted bail to Manish Sisodia earlier in the day. The court said that his long incarceration without trial had deprived him of the right to speedy justice, according to the PTI.</p>
