Dainik india news, New Delhi07:05:2024:During the hearing on Arvind Kejriwal’s interim bail plea in the Delhi liquor scam case, the Supreme Court questioned the ED lawyer, “How did it go from 100 crores to 1100 crores?” The court also inquired about the timing of Kejriwal’s arrest, the delay between investigation and arrest, and the reasons behind the prolonged probe. The ED stated that the increase in the amount was due to the benefits from a liquor policy. However, the court sought clarification on how the total income became associated with the alleged crime. The court also demanded files related to the case before Kejriwal’s arrest. Kejriwal’s counsel argued against the delay in addressing his client’s involvement and emphasized the need for understanding the case before proceeding. The court acknowledged the unusual circumstances, considering Kejriwal’s position as the Chief Minister, but questioned the delays in addressing the allegations. Kejriwal has been in jail since March 21st, with the ED accusing him of being involved in the liquor scam. The Aam Aadmi Party has contested these accusations, asserting that there will be no leadership change in Delhi, and Kejriwal will continue to govern from jail.
