Case involving the Delhi excise policy: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is invited to appear before the Enforcement Directorate on March 21.In the money laundering case involving the now-canceled Delhi excise policy, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Sunday sent Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal his ninth summons, requesting that he appear before it on Thursday, March 21. The ninth summons from the ED was sent one day after the additional chief metropolitan magistrate of Rouse Avenue Court gave Arvind Kejriwal bail, preventing him from being arrested for allegedly ignoring a summons that the investigating agency had sent him over money laundering related to the Delhi liquor policy.
Arvind Kejriwal physically appeared before the court on Saturday during the hearing. The national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party was granted bail by ACMM Divya Malhotra, who also pointed out that Section 174 of the Indian Penal Code allows for bail and instructed the parties to provide ₹15,000,000 each in the two complaint cases.The court also ordered the ED to provide Kejriwal with any documents pertaining to the complaints.
On Thursday, it was submitted that Kejriwal responded to every notice that the ED had sent out. However, the central probe agency persisted in sending out cyclostyle notices under Section 50 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) even after learning the reasons why they hadn’t shown up in person.
