The Enforcement Directorate has lodged a new legal complaint against the Chief Minister of Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal, for failing to appear in response to summonses

The Enforcement Directorate, a federal probe agency, has filed a fresh complaint against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in a Delhi court. The complaint accuses Kejriwal of repeatedly ignoring summonses issued to him in a money laundering case. According to official sources, the complaint specifically refers to Kejriwal’s failure to comply with summonses numbered 4 to 8, which were sent by the Enforcement Directorate under Section 50 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

The case is set to be heard on Thursday in the court of Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Divya Malhotra. This development comes as a significant blow to Kejriwal and his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), as it adds to the legal troubles they are already facing. The complaint highlights the alleged non-cooperation of the Chief Minister in the investigation of the money laundering case.

The Enforcement Directorate’s complaint underscores the seriousness of the matter and the agency’s determination to pursue legal action against Kejriwal. The repeated summonses issued to the Chief Minister indicate that the agency believes he has crucial information related to the money laundering case and his non-compliance is hindering the investigation.

If the court decides to proceed with the prosecution of Kejriwal, it could have significant implications for his political career and the AAP. The Chief Minister’s reputation and credibility may be at stake, as he will have to defend himself against the charges of disregarding the summonses. The outcome of the case will depend on the evidence presented and the arguments put forth by both the prosecution and the defense.

Overall, the lodging of this new complaint by the Enforcement Directorate further intensifies the legal battle surrounding Arvind Kejriwal and the AAP. The case will now proceed to the court, where the Chief Minister will have to face the charges against him and potentially face the consequences of his alleged non-compliance with the summonses.
