New Delhi, Apr 23, 2024, By News On Air

Delhi Rouse Avenue Court today extended the judicial custody of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K Kavitha till May 7th, in connection with the money laundering case linked to the now scrapped Delhi excise policy.

Special judge Kaveri Baweja of Rouse Avenue Court directed the Tihar jail authorities to produce both Mr. Kejriwal and Ms. Kavitha through virtual conferencing on May 7th at 2 PM.
The court’s decision comes a day after it rejected the Aam Aadmi Party leader’s plea seeking to allow him 15-minutes of medical consultation with his doctor daily in the presence of his wife Sunita Kejriwal.

Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 by the Enforcement Directorate after the Delhi High Court refused to grant him protection from coercive action by the central agency.

Ms. Kavitha, a Telangana MLC and daughter of former Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, was arrested on March 15 by the ED. She was later arrested by the CBI while she was in judicial custody.
