Arvind Kejriwal's Plea Against ED Arrest : Live Updates From Supreme Court Hearing

ASG: If we really had put pressure pn Sarath Reddy, he would have given a totally different statement. If the agency was biased...this is not a statement of somebody who was pressurized.

ASG: He only says he met...he could have said Kejriwal demanded 100 crores etc. Agency has been fair

ASG: We are at a stage of investigation. This has to be accepted as true!

J Khanna: That's when money is abroad

ASG: No, that's not the case. VMC says money need not go abroad for equivalent value to be attached

J Khanna: Give note on that

J Khanna: Then is the enactment in accordance with FTAA? How will attach if money is already gone and spent in elections

ASG: Equivalent can be attached

J Khanna: you had said that preliminary attachment is not mandatory. I remember. you had made your submissions

ASG: Attachment is not necessary. Without that, there can be conviction

Singhvi: It was after the policy. Out of 100 crores, he has only accounted for 2 amounts...

J Khanna (to ASG): have you not scaled it down to 45 crores?

ASG: No, 45 has been traced

J Khanna: you have to also argue on forfeiture notice aspect

J Khanna: when was liquor policy imposed?

ASG: 17.11.2021

J Khanna: Money went before or after the policy?

ASG: Money went in March

ASG: Person in liquor business goes to meet Kejriwal when he is considering liquor policy. There is likelihood that he would not have met for land for charitable purposes

ASG: Whenever someone denies confrontation, adverse inference must be drawn. It may be part of reasons to believe

ASG reading Arun Pillai's statement

ASG: If I get something subsequently, can I not show that my grounds were correct?
