Countering ED's 'kingpin' claim, AAP says money went to BJP via electoral bonds

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Saturday countered the Enforcement Directorate's 'kingpin of liquor policy scam' charge against Delhi Chief Minister and party supremo Arvind Kejriwal, and alleged the money went to the BJP via electoral bonds.

Addressing a press conference in connection with Kejriwal's arrest in the liquor policy case, Delhi Minister Atishi said, "In the so-called excise policy scam of Delhi, the investigations by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) have been going on for the past two years."

Arvind Kejriwal was on Friday remanded in Enforcement Directorate's custody till March 28 "for his detailed and sustained interrogation" regarding his role in the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.
