Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday was arrested in connection with the excise policy case, said Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Atishi.
A team of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) reached the residence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday evening to question him in connection with the excise policy case. As many as 4-5 phones and two tablets have been seized by the ED from the CM’s residence.
This came hours after the Delhi High Court denied any interim protection from arrest to Kejriwal in connection with the summons issued to him by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the liquor policy scam case.
AAP minister Atishi said that Kejriwal will remain the chief minister of Delhi. “We have received news that ED has arrested Arvind Kejriwal… We have always said that Arvind Kejriwal will run the govt from jail. He will remain the CM of Delhi. We have filed a case in the Supreme Court. Our lawyers are reaching SC. We will demand SC have an urgent hearing tonight,” she said.
