Delhi: Delhi Minister and Aam Admi Party leader Atishi slammed the Enforcement Directorate on Saturday, saying no money trail has been established by the central agency but it still arrested its party leaders.
She alleged that the BJP files all kinds of false cases against AAP and its leader the Delhi Chief, Minister Arvind Kejriwal, through agencies such as the ED, the Central Bureau of Investigation, and the Income Tax and Election Commission.
Hitting back at Atishi’s allegations, Delhi BJP president Virendraa Sachdeva said that many layers are being unveiled in the alleged liquor scam.
The Delhi education minister in today’s press conference said, “ED has been investigating the money trail in this so-called liquor scam. ED is still investigating the money trail linked to any leader of AAP, but they didn’t get a single penny of proceeds from crime from any AAP leader.”
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, arrested by the ED on March 21 in connection with the alleged Delhi excise policy scam case, has been sent to judicial custody until April 15. He is lodged in Tihar jail.
“The Supreme Court has continuously asked ED, where is the money trail linked to AAP?… But ED has no answer for this. Justice Sanjiv Khanna says the money trail has not been proven, it’s debatable. But many AAP leaders have been arrested under this case even after no money trail,” Atishi said.
The AAP leader stated that the BJP should not fight the elections by hiding behind the agencies but on the basis of their performance.
“BJP files all kinds of false cases against AAP & its leader, Arvind Kejriwal, through agencies under them like the ED, CBI, I-T and Election Commission of India.
