While being taken to the court yesterday, Mr Kejriwal dubbed the case against him as a “political conspiracy”. His wife told reporters outside the court that he is not keeping well in the ED custody.

Mr Kejriwal, who was arrested on March 21, is the third AAP leader after Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh to be arrested in the alleged liquor policy scam.
The ED believes the now-scrapped policy provided a high profit margin of nearly 185 per cent for retailers and 12 per cent for wholesalers. A portion from the wholesalers’ cut was recovered as bribes and allegedly used to fund the AAP’s Goa election campaign, the agency claims.
