Delhi liquor policy case: 'Will file cases against CBI, ED officials for...,' says Arvind Kejriwal after summons

New Delhi/IBNS: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday accused two central probe agencies of "producing false evidence in courts" a day after he was summoned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the liquor policy case in the city.

Kejriwal in a tweet said, "We will file appropriate cases against CBI and ED officials for perjury and producing false evidence in courts."

The Chief Minister said this in response to agencies' alleged false claims that 14 phones were destroyed, lying to the court in affidavits.

He said as quoted by NDTV, "When they found nothing in raids, they said the money had been funnelled into our Goa election campaign. Where is the proof of this? All our payments were made with cheques. Show me a single rupee of the ₹ 100 crore you claim we got."

"If I say, without proof, that I paid Prime Minister Narendra Modi ₹ 1,000 crore on the 17th of September at 7 pm, will you arrest him?" the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo added.

Kejriwal has been reportedly asked to appear for questioning on Sunday.

Earlier, former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was arrested by the CBI in February in connection with the liquor policy case. Later he was arrested by the ED as well.

The AAP has denied all charges against the party leaders as "vendetta" and efforts by the BJP, which governs at the centre, to target one of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's most vocal critics.
