The hearing on Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's plea against his arrest by the High Court Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the trial court's order sending him to ED custody in the Delhi Excise Policy case has been postponed.

 

ED had claimed that Kejriwal was the main conspirator in the Delhi Excise Policy scam case. The ED's money laundering investigation in the case was initiated by a case registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on August 17, 2022, in connection with alleged irregularities in the Delhi Excise Policy for 2021-22.

 

 

The CBI case was registered on July 20, 2022, on a complaint made by Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena. It has been alleged that a criminal conspiracy was hatched by AAP leaders including former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and other unknown and unnamed private persons/entities at the stage of formulation of the policy.

 

It is alleged that the conspiracy involved intentionally leaving or creating loopholes in the policy. These loopholes were allegedly meant to benefit some liquor licensees and conspirators after the tender process. Sisodia and AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh are already in jail in this case. On March 15, 2024, the ED also arrested Bharat Rashtra Samithi MLA and K. Kavitha, daughter of former Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao, in the case.
