A Delhi Court on Thursday further remanded Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to Enforcement Directorate (ED) custody till April 01 in the money laundering case related to the alleged liquor policy scam case. He was arrested on the night of March 21.

Special CBI judge Kaveri Baweja of the Rouse Avenue Courts passed the order after Kejriwal was produced in court on the expiry of his six days of ED custody. Yesterday, Delhi High Court had declined any interim relief to Kejriwal and only issued notice on his plea challenging the arrest and remand.

Additional Solicitor General SV Raju told the court that the sitting CM was giving “evasive replies” during interrogation and the agency needs to confront him with some individuals who have been summoned from Goa. ED thus sought 7 more days of custody.
