Sword of 'arrest' hangs over my head, says Manish Sisodia

New Delhi/UNI: Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said Monday that preparations are afoot to arrest him in a fake case to prevent him from campaigning in Gujarat.

Sisodia, who has been summoned by the CBI in connection with the Delhi excise policy case, said, "They are preparing to arrest me. Not a single penny of corruption was found in the CBI raid. Nothing was found in the bank locker. There was no gold, cash or property papers found.

"Inquiries in my village led to nothing. They know that the whole case is fake. Their purpose is to arrest me and put me in jail so that I do not go to Gujarat."

"BJP is terribly scared. Wherever I went to Gujarat, the condition of schools and hospitals there is bad. People of Gujarat have put their hope in Arvind Kejriwal," he added.

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra retorted as he told the media, "The way Manish Sisodia was raising slogans in an open car on the streets along with his supporters today, it seems as if the Aam Aadmi Party has won the World Cup of corruption."
