Arvind Kejriwal could be arrested today after ED raids, claims Aam Aadmi Party

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal could be arrested on Thursday, claimed the Aam Aadmi Party a day after he skipped the summons issued by the Enforcement Directorate.

The central agency had issued summons to Kejriwal on December 22 to appear for questioning on January 3 in connection with the liquor policy case.

This was the third time the central agency had summoned the Aam Aadmi Party chief in the matter. Kejriwal had skipped the last two summons as well.

Since Wednesday, several AAP leaders have claimed that the Enforcement Directorate could raid Kejriwal’s home. They have also said that roads leading to the Delhi chief minister’s residence have been blocked by the Delhi Police, reported NDTV.

Visuals shared by ANI showed heightened security deployment outside the Aam Aadmi Party leader’s home.
