CBI Raids At Manish Sisodia’s Residence, Office
On Friday, the CBI conducted raids at Manish Sisodia’s residence and office and 30 other locations in connection with the corruption case.
The 15-hour-long searches at the AAP leader's home, the residence of IAS officer and former excise commissioner Arava Gopi Krishna and 29 other places took place after the CBI registered an FIR for alleged corruption and bribery formulation and execution of the Delhi Excise Policy brought out last November, officials said, quoted by news agency PTI.
Speaking to reporters after the raid, Sisodia said, "The CBI team reached in the morning and searched the whole house. My family and myself extended them full cooperation. They seized my computer and mobile phone. They also took away some files." He alleged that the Centre was misusing the agency to stop the Arvind Kejriwal government from "doing good work" in Delhi.
