The Delhi High Court has reserved its verdict on an appeal lodged by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal challenging his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the Delhi liquor policy case. During the hearing, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, argued that the timing of the arrest was strategically planned so that Kejriwal would be unable to participate in the electoral process. The arrest was a ploy to destroy the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) even before the first vote was cast, Singhvi claimed.
