The Enforcement Directorate seeks 15-day judicial custody of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal. The ED says he is “totally uncooperative”. The court allows judicial custody of Arvind Kejriwal till April 15.

The Delhi HC asks the ED to submit a note to the special judge on the issue of CM Kejriwal passing orders while in custody in the money laundering case.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was produced before a Delhi court on Monday after his Enforcement Directorate custodial remand ended in the excise policy-linked money laundering case.

As per PTI report, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita Kejriwal has accused the BJP of having only one motive — to put her husband in jail during the Lok Sabha elections.

Kejriwal, the AAP’s national convenor, was arrested on March 21 and subsequently remanded in Enforcement Directorate (ED) custody.

He is accused of being directly involved in a conspiracy related to the formulation of the now-scrapped excise policy, favouring certain individuals. A trial court on Monday sent Kejriwal to judicial custody till April 15.

“He was questioned for 11 days, the questioning is complete. The court has not declared him guilty. Why has he been put in jail?” Sunita Kejriwal told reporters while leaving the Rouse Avenue court.

“They (the BJP) have only one objective — to put him in jail ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. The country’s people will give a reply to this dictatorship,” she said.
