Delhi Liquor Case: Manish Sisodia Remanded in 5-day CBI Custody

New Delhi: A special CBI court on Monday sent Delhi’s deputy CM Manish Sisodia to five-day custody of the central probe agency. The AAP leader was given in the CBI custody till March 4. 

Sisodia was arrested on Sunday evening in connection with alleged corruption in the Delhi liquor policy case. Earlier in the day, Delhi's deputy CM was produced before the Rouse Avenue court. Special judge MK Nagpal allowed the CBI’s plea for the custodial interrogation of Sisodia. 

 The AAP leaders and workers held demonstrations against the BJP in several states today and condemned the arrest of Sisodia in the case. They alleged that the BJP government was misusing the central agencies to target its political adversaries. Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema told reporters that the BJP was allegedly foisting false cases against its political rivals. 

CBI ने Court से @msisodia जी की 5 दिन की रिमांड मांगी

CBI को Office-घर, गांव में Raid मारने पर कुछ नहीं मिला, 5 दिन में भी कुछ नहीं मिलेगा

Policy पर आख़िरी मोहर LG ने लगाई तो LG से पूछताछ क्यों नहीं हो रही?

साफ़ है @msisodia को फंसाने के लिए ही साज़िश रची है

“The BJP has become a danger for democracy in the country,” alleged Cheema.  Meanwhile, the BJP has claimed that the AAP believes in neither court nor law.
