A local court in Delhi today ordered the preservation of CCTV footage at the request of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. He sought the removal of a Delhi Police officer, alleging misconduct during a court appearance. Despite the allegations, the court ruled to place Kejriwal under the custody of the Enforcement Directorate until March 28 in relation to the Delhi excise policy scandal. Kejriwal’s lawyer questioned the timing of his arrest and the ED’s motives. The ED accused Kejriwal of being involved in bribery through the liquor policy and managing proceeds of crime in the Goa election campaign. Kejriwal’s defense emphasized the lack of direct evidence against him and questioned the ED’s actions. They highlighted the significance of this case as the first instance of a sitting Chief Minister being arrested in India, expressing concerns about its impact on democracy.
