Delhi Excise Policy Scam

Reacting to the ED summons, Delhi Minister and AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj said, "Now we have come to know that Chief Minister Kejriwal has been summoned by the ED. It makes clear that only motto of the Central government is to finish AAP by any means. And for this they are not leaving any stone unturned as they are registering false cases and to jail Kejriwal and finish the AAP."

According to sources, Kejriwal has been asked to appear before the ED on November 2. Kejriwal was questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in April this year. The summon comes on the day when the Supreme Court dismissed former Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia's bail plea.

In a tweet from its official handle, the AAP said: "Another shameful lie of Modi's ED. Of the total assets attached by ED today only a bank account containing Rs 11 lakh and a flat of the value of Rs 5 lakh of Sisodia have been attached. The assets belonging to Sisodia is total upto the value of Rs 16 lakh only."

On Monday, the Delhi High Court refused to grant bail to senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader. A bench of Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma said that Sisodia was not able to meet the twin conditions for grant of bail under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), and the triple test for grant of bail.

During their last attempt to meet, Sisodia couldn't see his wife as she had to be hospitalized in Lal Bahadur Shastri Hospital due to her deteriorating condition. The court has also instructed the media not to be present during his visit to meet his wife, as media personnel had previously attempted to speak to him.

According to the High Court order, Sisodia can meet his wife from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow. Sisodia has been directed not to interact with the media in any manner and not to meet anyone else except his family. Furthermore, it has instructed Sisodia to stay away from cell phones and the internet.
