CBI Examines Delhi CM Kejriwal In Tihar, Trial Court Hearing On Wednesday

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday, questioned and recorded the statement of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal regarding the Excise Policy case, a day before the Supreme Court’s hearing. According to a report by news agency ANI, the CBI also obtained permission to present Kejriwal before the relevant trial court on Wednesday. He is scheduled to appear before the court on that day.

Earlier in the day, the Delhi High Court suspended a trial court’s decision to grant bail to Kejriwal, stating that the lower court did not “appropriately appreciate” the evidence presented by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

Regarding the CBI’s action, AAP leader Sanjay Singh accused the BJP of conspiring with CBI officers to frame the Delhi Chief Minister in a “fake case”.

In his video message posted on X, Singh said, “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 SC. 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.”
