A Delhi court on Sunday remanded Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to judicial custody till June 5, hours after his surrender on expiry of his interim bail in the Delhi Liquor Policy scam case.
The national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today surrendered before the Tihar Jail authorities on expiry of his 21-day interim bail.
After his surrender, Kejriwal was produced before Magistrate Sanjeev Aggarwal through a virtual conference.
On May 10, the Supreme Court had granted interim bail till June 1 to Kejriwal, who was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case related to the now-scrapped Delhi Excise Policy 2020-21.
The order was passed by the Bench of Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Dipankar Datta. The court ordered Arvind Kejriwal not to visit the office of the Chief Minister.
It further directed the Chief Minister not to sign any official files. It also barred CM Arvind Kejriwal from commenting about the case and interacting with the witness.
Earlier on May 9, the legal team of Delhi Chief Minister and AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday raised strong objection to the affidavit filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) opposing his interim bail in the Supreme Court.
