Delhi Court Summons Arvind Kejriwal on ED's Complaint in Excise Case
A Delhi court has summoned CM Arvind Kejriwal on Feb 17 in response to a plea by the Enforcement Directorate, alleging that he failed to comply with summonses in a money laundering case related to the now-scrapped excise policy. The court issued the summons under IPC Section 174, stating that Kejriwal was legally bound to attend in person but had failed to do so despite sending replies explaining his non-appearance. The court observed that there are sufficient grounds for proceeding and that Kejriwal has so far skipped five ED summonses, prompting the agency to move court over non-compliance of three summonses.
