Delhi Deputy Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia were produced by the CBI in Rouse Avenue Court on Monday afternoon. After the hearing, the court gave its decision on his remand. Rouse Avenue Court has given five days' remand of Manish Sisodia to CBI. That is, Manish Sisodia will remain in CBI remand till March 4. After presenting Sisodia to the court, the CBI asked for a five-day remand, which the court accepted.
What happened in court?
The CBI told the court that the commission was increased from Rs 5 crore to Rs 12 crore at the behest of Sisodia. Remand is needed for inquiry. Manish Sisodia's remand sought by CBI was opposed by his lawyer Dayan Krishna. He also said that there is no reason to seek remand and that the allegations of non-cooperation in the investigation are baseless. Sisodia's lawyer said that the commission was increased after the approval of the Lieutenant Governor. Everything happened in the knowledge of LG. Transparency was maintained in the liquor policy.
Three lawyers were present in the court on behalf of Sisodia
Manish Sisodia's lawyer Dayan Krishna said that Sisodia appeared before the CBI on every notice. Three lawyers were present on behalf of Sisodia in the court. After the completion of the hearing, the Rouse Avenue Court reserved the decision for some time on Manish Sisodia's demand for CBI's remand. Earlier, the CBI had arrested the Deputy CM on Sunday after eight hours of questioning regarding the Delhi Excise Policy matter. His medical was done on Monday afternoon, after which he was produced in court.
CBI officers were against Manish's arrest: Kejriwal
At the same time, leaders of all opposition parties, including the convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, have also opposed the arrest of Manish Sisodia. On Monday, CM Kejriwal tweeted, "I am told that most CBI officers were against Manish's arrest. Everyone has a lot of respect for him and there is no evidence against him, but the political pressure to arrest him was so great that They had to arrest him."
BJP-Congress targeted Sisodia
On the other hand, BJP taunted AAP and Manish Sisodia and said that the party is presenting them as poor. Apart from this, Delhi Congress President Anil Chaudhary welcomed the decision to arrest Manish Sisodia.
