A Delhi Police crime branch team is at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence to serve him a notice in connection with a probe over his claim that the BJP was trying to “buy” seven AAP MLAs, official sources said on Friday night.
A team of Crime Branch officials have reached Kejriwal’s residence to serve him the notice related to the inquiry, they said.
In a post on X, Kejriwal had claimed last week that seven of his party MLAs had been contacted by the “them”. He alleged that the BJP made an offer of Rs 25 crore each to buy seven of his MLAs.
The BJP had filed a police complaint in the matter.
After Kejriwal’s allegations, Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva had hit back saying, “This shows how much politically desperate Kejriwal has become. This unfounded allegation by him is an attempt to keep himself politically alive. The allegation that the BJP wants to break away MLAs of the ruling AAP, having 62 out of 70 MLAs in Delhi, shows his mental bankruptcy.”
Meanwhile, Kejriwal skipped the fifth summons by the ED for questioning on Friday in a money laundering case linked to the Delhi excise policy. He has been summoned five times and has skipped them all, claiming that the summons were illegal.
