New Delhi: The Delhi high court on Friday issued a notice to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) regarding a bail plea filed by chief minister Arvind Kejriwal in connection with the excise policy case.<\/p>\n
Initially, the high court agreed with the CBI\u2019s contention that Kejriwal should have approached a city court first. However, the bench later opted to consider the merits of Kejriwal\u2019s direct appeal to the high court during the arguments.<\/p>\n
Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, representing Kejriwal, said the AAP leader is not a flight risk and not a terrorist and the CBI arrested him after he got bail in the ED\u2019s money laundering case.<\/p>\n
\u201cNotice accepted. Petitioner has approached directly before the HC, this contention shall be considered at the time of arguments,\u201d said Justice Neena Bansal Krishna in her order.<\/p>\n
The court listed it for further hearing on July 17.<\/p>\n
The AAP supremo has already challenged his arrest in the CBI case and the plea is pending before the high court.<\/p>\n
Arvind Kejriwal, the national convener of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), was arrested by the CBI from Tihar Jail, where he remains in judicial custody in connection with a money laundering case filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).<\/p>\n
