A special court on Wednesday dismissed the bail application of Shivakumar.
The ED had in September last year registered the money laundering case against Shivakumar and a few others.
The case was based on a charge sheet filed by the Income Tax (I-T) Department on charges of alleged tax evasion and unaccounted transactions worth crores.
