NEW DELHI: A Delhi court issued a notice to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday regarding chief minister Arvind Kejriwal‘s application for regular bail in a case related to money laundering. The case is connected to the alleged excise scam.
The court, presided over by Special Judge Kaveri Baweja, has instructed the ED to submit its response to Kejriwal’s plea by Saturday.Additionally, the judge has requested the ED’s response to another plea submitted by Kejriwal, seeking interim bail for a week on medical grounds, in the event that his regular bail plea is not granted.
Currently, Kejriwal is on interim bail in the case until June 1, which was granted by the Supreme Court.
Earlier, Kejriwal has filed for a seven-day extension of his interim bail concerning his health.
As per Delhi minister Atishi, “When he (Kejriwal) was in ED custody, judicial custody, he lost 7 kg of weight. This sudden weight loss is a matter of concern for doctors,” she said.
“Despite being out of custody and under medical supervision, he has not been able to regain the weight again. Early tests have indicated that his ketone levels are extremely high. Unexplained sudden weight loss along with high ketone levels could be the indicator of some serious medical ailments, including damage to the kidneys, including cancer,” she said.
“Therefore, doctors have suggested that he needs to have a series of investigations, including PET scans of his entire body, and other such serious tests,” the minister said.
