The Supreme Court on Monday adjourned the hearing on <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/photo/in-pics-aap-holds-protest-against-arrest-of-sanjay-singh-97629/1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh</a>'s plea against the Delhi High Court order rejecting his petition challenging his remand and arrest in the alleged liquor irregularities case.
A bench of justices Sanjiv Khanna and SVN Bhatti adjourned the matter for further hearing on February 5.
Sanjay Singh has moved the SC against the Delhi High Court order rejecting his plea challenging his remand and arrest in the alleged liquor irregularities case.
The court has asked ED to file a reply to Sanjay Singh's plea. Recently, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/aam-aadmi-party-articles" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Delhi High Court</a> dismissed Aam Aadmi Party leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh's plea challenging his remand and arrest. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) recently arrested Sanjay Singh after a day-long questioning by the ED officials at his Delhi residence. ED claimed that Singh and his associates played a part in the Delhi government's decision to give licenses to alcohol shops and merchants in 2020, causing losses to the state exchequer and violating anti-corruption laws. ED has previously searched several locations including the homes and offices of Sanjay Singh's close associate Ajit Tyagi and other contractors and businessmen who allegedly benefited from the policy. In its nearly 270-page supplementary charge sheet, the ED has called <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/manish-sisodia-articles" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sisodia a key conspirator</a> in the case. The Delhi liquor scam case or the excise policy case pertains to allegations that the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 allowed cartelisation and favoured certain dealers who had allegedly paid bribes for it, a charge that has been strongly refuted by the AAP. ED, last year filed its first chargesheet in the case. The agency said it has so far undertaken over 200 search operations in this case after filing an FIR after taking cognisance of a CBI case which was registered on the recommendation of the Delhi lieutenant governor. The CBI inquiry was recommended on the findings of the Delhi chief secretary's report filed in July showing prima facie violations of the GNCTD Act 1991, Transaction of Business Rules (ToBR)-1993, Delhi Excise Act-2009, and Delhi Excise Rules-2010.
