CBI examines Arvind Kejriwal in Tihar Jail; gets permission to produce him before trial court tomorrow
Arvind Kejriwal in relation to the Excise Policy case.
CBI also got permission for Arvind Kejriwal's production before the concerned trial court tomorrow. He will be produced before the court tomorrow, reported news agency ANI.
Earlier during the day, the Delhi High Court stayed the trial court order granting him bail in the money laundering case arising from the alleged excise scam, holding that the lower court did not «appropriately appreciate» the material placed before it by the Enforcement Directorate. A vacation bench of Justice Sudhir Kumar Jain said the ED's contentions assailing the bail order required serious consideration.
AAP's allegations:
AAP leader Sanjay Singh alleged on Tuesday that the BJP has hatched a conspiracy with CBI officers to frame Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a «fake case».
There was no immediate reaction to the allegation from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
«We have learnt from reliable sources that the BJP-led Centre has hatched a conspiracy with CBI officers at a time when there is a huge possibility of Kejriwal getting bail from the Supreme Court. They have planned to frame him in a fake case by the CBI and get him arrested. The entire country is watching the atrocities of the BJP. How will one get justice in such circumstances? People will stand up against this,» the Rajya Sabha MP of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said.
Kejriwal's court hearing:
The trial court, presided over by vacation judge Niyay Bindu, had granted bail
