AAP's Complaint In Supreme Court As Probe Agency Opposes Arvind Kejriwal's Bail
NDTV
The Enforcement Directorate has opposed the interim bail petition moved by Arvind Kejriwal, saying that a politician can claim no "special status" higher than that of an ordinary citizen.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said on Thursday that the legal team of Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday raised a strong objection to the affidavit filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the Supreme Court opposing the interim bail plea moved by the Delhi Chief Minister.
A formal complaint has been lodged in this regard with the Supreme Court's registry denouncing the ED's affidavit as "blatant disregard of legal procedures", especially considering that the matter is already slated for a final decision in the top court on Friday. It also claimed that the affidavit was submitted without obtaining the SC's approval.
Questioning the ED's objection to the interim bail of Mr Kejriwal, the AAP said it is well known that even after two years of investigation by the ED in the alleged liquor policy scam, not a single rupee or piece of evidence has been recovered incriminating anybody in the Aam Aadmi Party.
