A Delhi court has sent Vijay Nair to CBI remand for five days. CBI had sought seven days remand. The CBI had arrested businessman Vijay Nair in Mangarwar. This is the first arrest in the alleged liquor policy scam in the capital Delhi.
After this, Nair was produced in a Delhi court on Wednesday. Here the court has sent Nair on remand for five days. Before his arrest, Nair was called by the CBI for questioning. He was questioned at length by CBI officials.
In this case, Vijay Nair is the number five accused in the case filed by the CBI. It is known that Nair is the former CEO of event management company Only Much Louder. Earlier, the ED had raided his premises. At the same time, on this whole matter, the Aam Aadmi Party says that Vijay Nair has nothing to do with the excise policy. The party has described him as a media strategist. Also said that he was making a strategy for the Gujarat elections.
Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia is also accused in this case of alleged irregularities in the implementation of the (now sacked) liquor policy. Based on the FIR by the CBI, the ED has registered a case of money laundering and so far both agencies have conducted several search operations on the matter.
According to the FIR, Sisodia's "closers"- Amit Arora, Dinesh Arora, and Arjun Pandey, directors of Gurugram-based Buddy Retail Pvt Ltd, were involved in passing on the profits obtained from liquor licenses to the accused public servants. The CBI alleges that Radha Industries, a company managed by Arora, took Rs 1 crore from Mahendru. The agency has claimed that the sources revealed that Arun Ramchandra Pillai used to take unfair advantage of money from Sameer Mahendru and pass it on to the accused public servants through Vijay Nair.
The agency said that a person named Arjun Pandey once took two to four crore rupees from Sameer Mahendru on behalf of Vijay Nair. The ED is probing whether the alleged irregularities were committed under the implementation of the excise policy. In this case, the agency has also questioned Aam Aadmi Party MLA Durgesh Pathak and Tihar Jail minister Satyendar Jain.
