The Rouse Avenue Court on Tuesday extended the judicial custody of AAP leader Manish Sisodia in a money laundering case related to the alleged excise scam till June 1.
Also, the judge directed the jail authorities to consider providing the politician a chair and a table along with books inside the prison premises.
In the meantime, when Sisodia was being brought out of the courtroom, he told the media in reference to a bill for replacing the Centre’s Ordinance on Delhi’s Services matter that Prime Minister Narendra Modi “doesn’t believe in democracy”.
The former deputy CM charged stating that, “Modi has become very arrogant.”
On November 17, 2021, the Delhi government executed the excise policy but scrapped it at the end of September 2022 amid allegations of corruption.
Sisodia is an accused in the cases lodged by both the CBI & ED in the matter.
