Excise policy scam case
Excise policy scam case: Manish Sisodia, the leader of the Aam Aadmi Party, had his judicial custody extended by a court here on Saturday until April 18 in connection with a money laundering case involving the purported Delhi excise policy scandal.
Sisodia was brought before the court when his previous judicial custody was about to expire, and Special Judge Kaveri Baweja prolonged his judicial custody.
Sanjay Singh, a fellow party member and co-accused in the case who was recently granted bail by the Supreme Court, also showed up in court for the proceedings.
Excise policy scam case: Both the CBI and the ED have claimed that irregularities were made when changing the Delhi Excise Policy, that license fees were waived or lowered, that licenses were extended without the consent of the appropriate authority, and that undue favors were given to license holders.
The investigating authorities have claimed that in order to avoid detection, the beneficiaries reportedly transferred “illegal” income to the accused officials and made fake entries in their books of account.
DELHI GOVERNMENT SCHOOL ADMISSION 2024 WILL BEGIN ON THIS DAY AND INCLUDE CLASSES 6 TO 9.
On February 26, 2023, Sisodia was taken into custody by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) due to his purported involvement in the “scam”. On March 9, 2023, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) detained Sisodia in connection with a money-laundering case that resulted from the CBI FIR.
The Delhi cabinet was resigned by Sisodia on February 28, 2023.
