Kejriwal summoned by ED for 5th time in excise policy case
cancel

New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued a fifth summons to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for investigation in the Delhi excise policy-related money laundering case, official sources said Wednesday.

Kejriwal, who is also the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), ignored four previous summonses issued by the federal agency for January 18, January 3, November 2, and December 21 2023. He had described these notices as "illegal".

It is understood that the fresh summons was for February 2.

It is alleged that the Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 to grant licences to liquor traders allowed cartelisation and favoured certain dealers who had allegedly paid bribes for it, a charge repeatedly refuted by the AAP.

The policy was subsequently scrapped and Delhi Lt Governor V K Saxena recommended a CBI probe, following which the ED registered a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
