New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate has filed a fresh complaint before a Delhi court seeking
prosecution of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for skipping its summonses in a money laundering
investigation, official sources said on Wednesday.
The latest complaint pertains to the AAP national convenor not honouring the summons no 4 to 8,
they said.
The court of ACMM Divya Malhotra has listed the master to be heard on Thursday. The ED had
earlier moved a local court seeking Kejriwal’s prosecution for not attending the first three
summonses issued to him in the money laundering investigation linked to the Delhi excise policy.
The court has listed this matter for hearing on March 16. The ED has filed the fresh complaint under
section 174 Indian Penal Code (non-attendance in obedience to an order from public servant) read
with section 63(4) of the PMLA that speaks about ‘a person who intentionally disobeys any
direction’ apart from some other sections of the law.
