The Delhi court sent Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to judicial custody until April 15 in a liquor graft case on Monday, less than three weeks before the country begins voting in national elections.
Delhi Chief Minister Kejriwal sent to judicial custody until April 15 in graft case
Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) says he has been "falsely arrested" in a "fabricated" case, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government and his Bharatiya Janata Party deny political interference. Lawyers for the agency said on Monday that Kejriwal had been "non-cooperative" and was "giving evasive replies" and asked the court to remand him to judicial custody for 15 days.
