The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Friday informed the Supreme Court that it had unearthed direct evidence of “chats” between Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and hawala operators through whom kickbacks in the liquor policy case were paid.
Mr. Kejriwal countered the ED was making a last-ditch attempt to prejudice the court against him.
The submission by the ED in the Supreme Court coincided with the Central agency filing a supplementary chargesheet at Rouse Avenue court, formally naming Mr. Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as accused in the money laundering case linked to the excise policy change in the national capital. The chargesheet was filed shortly after the ED informed the Supreme Court of its intention to do so.
