‘PM Modi Admits There’s No Evidence In Liquor Policy Case’: Delhi CM Kejriwal Urges For Release Of All Accused

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal emphasised that all individuals detained in connection with the case should be released. He said the BJP has been screaming that there has been a scam.

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal claimed in a virtual press conference that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has acknowledged that excise policy case is fake.  Kejriwal demanded that all individuals detained in connection with the case should be released.

CM Kejriwal said the BJP has been screaming that there has been a scam. "They are screaming for two years that there is a liquor scam claiming it was to the tune of Rs 100 crore, but not even a penny has been recovered", said Kejriwal, who is out on interim bail till June 1 in the case, reported PTI.

AAP national convener criticised the PM's remarks in an interview where he allegedly referred to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as an 'anubhavi chor' (experienced thief).

In his response, Delhi CM Kejriwal said, "PM Modi confessed that he has no evidence, no recovery in liquor scam. The remark is just an excuse to prove the wrong arrests right. All your CBI and ED  officers are useless... When you have accepted that the excise scam is fake, you have no proof, please release those who have been arrested".
