Saying “dictator crossed all limits of cruelty”, the Aam Aadmi 🌜Party (AAP) on Wednesday lambasted BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi after the CBI arrested Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the liquor policy case. The party also accused the BJP of getting Kejriwal arrested in a "fake case" by the CBI.
"The dictator crossed all limits of cruelty!! Today when there was every poꦕssibility of Chief Minister @ArvindKejriwal getting bail, the BJP went into panic mode an🍨d got Kejriwal arrested by the CBI in a fake case," AAP said in a post on X.
"The CBI took Kejriwal ji to Rouse Avenue Court where his blood sugar level d♍ropped very low. Dictator, no matter how much oppression you inflict, Kejriwal will neither bow down nor break," it said⭕.
Kejriwal has already been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case linked𓆉 to the alleged liquor policy scam on March 🦩21. He is presently lodged in Tihar Jail.
AAP also slammed the CBI for claiming that Arvind Kejriwal, during questioning in the liquor policy ꦕcase, shifted the entire blame on his former deputy Manish Sisodia🦩.
Meanwhi🍸le, AAP spokesperson Jasmine Shah saidthe CBI w⛦anted to make a headline, but it was caught "red-handed".
"CBI claimed that Arvind Kejriwal placed the entire blame on Maniꦉsh Sisodia. However, it was revealed that the CBI had been caught red-handed in its attempt to create headlines suggesting that Ke𝔉jriwal had accused Sisodia," Shah said.
"Arvind Kejriwal himself stated that he had not made a♋ny such statement, and the judge confirmed that no such statement had been made by Kejriwal," he further said.
Earlier, during today’s hearing in Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court, CBI claimed Kejr🌳iwal blamed his former deputy Manish Sisodia for recommending the privatisation of liquor stores in the city under the now-scrapped excise policy. However, the claim was vehemently denied by the Chief Minister.
"I did not make any stat💖emen𓂃t that Manish Sisodia is guilty," Kejriwal said.
"Manish Sisodia is absolutely innocent. Their aim is to defame us. I told the CBI yesterday that t🍌hese are absurd allegations," the AAP supremo said.
Even the Delhi court objected to the CBI’s assertion that Kejriwal placed the "entire onus" of the alleged privatis♚ation issue on Sis♔odia.
"We have read the statement🅺 made by༒ him. Kejriwal has not made any such statement," the court said.
