Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal’s two revisions challenging the issuance of summons on Saturday have been replied to by the Enforcement Directorate (ED)ред Advocate Rehan Khan and Advocate Mudit Jain for Kejriwal have taken time to respond to the responses sent by the anti-money laundering agency PTI news agency reported that special judge Rakesh Syal has listed the case for argument on April 24.
On March 21, the Delhi Chief Minister was arrested by the ED in a case of excise policy that is currently under investigation.ED claimed that Kejriwal was among the main conspirators in the alcohol scam. The federal agency said that the Delhi CM got a kickback of several crores of rupees from the “South Group” for developing the Delhi excise policy and using that capital for the elections in Goa and Punjab.
Kejriwal received nine summonses from the ED, but the chief minister of Delhi ignored them all, claiming that the investigation team was trying to arrest him and prevent his AAP party from running for the next Lok Sabha elections.
Kejriwal filed an appeal at the Rouse Avenue Court on March 15th, requesting a stay of the ED summons; however, the court denied his motion.
The AAP leader did not disobey, according to Kejriwal’s lawyer. A person can only be called upon when their deliberate absence is made. In response to each summons, he stated that he was unable to attend owing to obligations, as the Chief Minister and attorney Ramesh Gupta contended.
However, ASG S V Raju contended that it makes no difference if you (Kejriwal) were called as a witness or charged. It was evident that the revisionist was not obeying.
The ED claims that it wishes to record Kejriwal’s statement about matters such as the creation of policy, discussions that took place before to its finalization, and accusations of bribery.
