Personally addressing the Rouse Avenue Court while opposing the CBI’s plea that sought his custody in connection with the Delhi excise policy case, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal denied media reports that claimed he had blamed Deputy CM Manish Sisodia for the alleged scam, LiveLaw reported.
“A false narrative is being spread by CBI sources in the media that I have put the blame of liquor policy scam on Manish Sisodia. I have not made any such statement blaming Manish Sisodia or any other person. I had said that Manish Sisodia is innocent. Aam Aadmi Party is innocent. I am innocent. But CBI’s plan is to malign us in the media. Please record that CBI sources have spread fake news in the media,” he reportedly said.
