The appeal has been filed by Kejriwal in the top court, a lawyer ass𒉰ociated with the case told PTI. ♐
The high court, while upholding his arrest, had asked Kejriwal to move the trial court first for seeking regular bail🥀.
AAP supremo Kejriwal was arrested by the ED on March 21, was gra𝄹nted bail by the trial court in the money laundering case on June 20. However, the trial 🤪court's order was stayed by the high court.
On July 12, the Supreme Court granted him interim b🧸ail in the money laundering case.
The excise policy was scrapped in 2022 after the Delhi lieutenant governor ordered a CBI probe into alleged irregularitiཧes and c𒐪orruption involving the formulation and execution of the excise policy.
According to the CBI and the ED, irregularities were committed while modifying the exꦦcise policy and undue favours extended to licence holders.
