New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal who was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with the excise policy case a day before, said that his life is dedicated to the country whether he is outside or in jail.
A video shared by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on its X handle showed Kejriwal reaffirming his 'commitment' to the country.
"Whether I am inside or outside, my life is dedicated to the country," Kejriwal said as he was produced before Rouse Avenue court on Friday by ED following his arrest on Thursday.
Senior Advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi appearing for Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal before the court on Friday said that there is no direct evidence.
"Without there being any material in possession of the Enforcement Directorate on the basis of which Mr Kejriwal can be believed to be guilty of an offence, he is being illegally and arbitrarily arrested by the ED," Singhvi submitted before Rouse Avenue court.
Singhvi while concluding his arguments before the Special Judge, requested, "Please do not look at the remand as a routine. It requires the application of significant judicial mind...there are larger issues of democracy involved."
The Delhi CM was arrested by ED on Thursday night from his official residence. (with ANI inputs)
