Arvind Kejriwal's Challenge To ED Arrest : Live Updates From Supreme Court
Singhvi: your Lordships summarized the case in Sisodia judgment. There was nothing about Kejriwal
J Khanna: initially I thought, since I decided that case, whether I should take up this. Then I thought it may be misunderstood as my not wanting.
Singhvi: Sisodia was one step closer. Same documents, same 23 statements. Only name is different. Till the point I have read judgment, Your Lordships did not find in favour of ED
Singhvi referring to Manish Sisodia's case
Singhvi: What this Goa person says does not relate to Kejriwal. Or Section 3 PMLA
Singhvi: Receiving or not receiving cash is an IT offense. IT is not under PMLA schedule.
J Khanna: In Manish Sisodia, a sequence was given regarding formulation of policy...
Singhvi: Factually, that judgment does not relate to me
Singhvi: There is a 6th person - name is not available
J Khana: Where do we get that?
Singhvi: Found from attachment order
Singhvi: Raghav's father makes statement. Next day, they give no-objection. Please read between lines. He and his father are now contesting elections. Farce going on as far as approvership is concerned.
Singhvi: Raghav initially made no allegation...his wife attempted suicide. He sought interim bail, special judge dismissed. His maternal grandmother fell, was in ICU. Del HC granted interim bail. ED challenged this.
Singhvi: let's see Sarath Reddy...19.04, he moved Del HC for bail...gives favorable statement...bail extended as ED sought time to file reply. Cancer objected, but later no-objection
Singhvi: Now please come to inducement
J Khanna: That may not be relevant
Singhvi: These are circumstances, pressures...apart from the fact that the statements do not make out Section 3
