ED Moves Delhi HC Against Arvind Kejriwal's Bail : Live Updates From Hearing

Singhvi: There are nine summons to me. I reply to each summons and in the first one of CBI, I also go and give my statement but I don't go on summons by ED.

Singhvi: Your lordships doesn't need summons to arrest me. Of an FIR and ECIR of 2022, and summons starting from Mid 2023, no arrest of Kejriwal till March 2024. Elections are announced. I made the mistake of going to a court seeking anticipatory bail. Your lordships grants notice. Can that be ground of arrest? That is how I am arrested.

Singhvi: He got bail on the understanding, on inducement. That's how the ED functions. Then the bail gets absolute and he gets pardon.

Singhvi: The most important is Sarath Reddy who gets out on back pain.

Singhvi: Nine statements not implicating me. Then after these statements he implicates me and then he gets bail on back pain without any objection.

Singhvi: The father gives a statement totally in my favour. MSR not arrested till now.... Now, his son is arrested. He desperately has to get out of jail. This attempted suicide application is opposed by ED. Then, desperate father implicates me. Next day his son gets bail.

Singhvi: When judge says 2022, she is right. Then four statements in 2022 none of which implicate me. Names are Raghav Magunta, Buchi Babu, Abhishek Boinpally and Sarath Reddy. None of them say a word about me. Then the father of Raghav who is MSR records a 164 statement and mentions for the first time that I spoke to him about liquor business.

Singhvi: Three arrests have been made by them. Note the dates of arrest. Prior to arrest, nothing implicating me. The arrests are in November 2022 and Feb 2023. Buchi Babu statement is while he was in custody and he gets bail immediately.

Singhvi: Before I read findings, I want to show list of dates. These submissions read with list of dates validate the findings. This was given to the special judge also.

Singhvi reads the trial court order.

Singhvi: All this evidence and material was there and then the findings were given. 

Singhvi rejoins the proceedings.

Singhvi: Just glance at these paras. Turn to the judgement. The judge notes that I am not in ECIR and not in CBI FIR.

Chaudhari: As I see it, it is ED's take, my way or highway. Please look at the order itself. From page 1 to page 15, are only the contentions of both sides.

Chaudhari: The judge in her own language decipher the contentions of both sides. Also categorises them in numbers. On page 12, arguments of ED.

Chaudhari: If I can take it... I'll just wrap it up. Then Mr. Singhvi can continue.

ASG: There cannot be two wrapping up.
