The workers were sloganeering, defending the party leader and condemned the raids conducted at Singh’s residential premises.
Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted morning raids at AAP MP Sanjay Singh's residence as part of a money laundering investigation in Delhi excise policy case and arrested him later in the day.
Sanjay Singh's name appeared in the charge sheet regarding the alleged funds generated for Aam Aadmi Party during the 2020 Delhi assembly elections.
Middleman Dinesh Arora's statement revealed interactions with Singh, requesting help in relocating a liquor shop, and discussions with Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.
The party claims that ED is 'targeting' Sanjay Singh due to his vocal stance on Adani group issues in Parliament.
Sanjay Singh's father, Dinesh Singh, asserted their willingness to cooperate fully with the Enforcement Directorate during the investigation.
The AAP strongly refuted accusations of allowing cartelization and favoritism in the 2021-22 liquor licensing process.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal suggested that the ED raids are a sign of desperation by the BJP ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
