Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has filed a fresh petition in the Delhi High Court demanding no punitive action against him. A division bench led by Justice Suresh Kumar Kait will hear the case this morning. ED has so far issued nine summons to him in the excise case. During the hearing of his case in the Delhi High Court yesterday, his lawyers said that they fear that the ED will arrest them and they are ready to appear if they are given protection.

 

The High Court on Wednesday sought a response from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on a plea by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal challenging the summons issued to him in connection with the Delhi Excise Policy case. At the same time, during the hearing, the court asked Kejriwal's lawyer, senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, why the CM was not appearing before the agency for questioning.

Singhvi replied that he feared that the ED would arrest him and that the Chief Minister was ready to appear if he was given security. The bench asked, you are a citizen of the country, the summons is in name only. Why don't you appear? The bench asked the senior lawyer what is the general practice of the ED and whether it arrests people on the first summons itself.

 

Singhvi said that AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh were also similarly arrested by the agency. This is the new style. Meanwhile, Additional Solicitor General SV Raju, appearing for the ED, said that the petition is not maintainable.
