Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of being produced in Delhi court, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal said that ‘What PM is doing is not good for the country’. He was produced on Monday before the court at the conclusion of his custody.
Kejriwal is currently in the custody of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) due to his alleged involvement in a money laundering case linked to the Delhi Excise Policy.
Security measures were amplified outside the Rouse Avenue court on Pandit Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Marg as preparations were made for Kejriwal’s legal proceedings.
Among those present at the court complex was Atishi, a senior minister in Delhi and Kejriwal’s wife, Sunita Kejriwal.
During the earlier session, the Rouse Avenue Court decided to extend Arvind Kejriwal’s custodial remand by an additional four days in connection with the ongoing case. The ED, advocating for an extension, informed the court that data from one mobile phone, belonging to Kejriwal’s wife, had been extracted and was under scrutiny.
However, the analysis of data from the other four digital devices seized during the search at Kejriwal’s premises on March 21, 2024, has been delayed.
