New Delhi: The name of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha has come up in the Delhi Excise Policy scam case. The AAP MP’s name has been included in the ED’s supplementary charge sheet.
It is reported that the PA of former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia had taken the name of Raghav Chadha. However, Raghav is not named as an accused in the charge sheet. AAP leader Manish Sisodia is already in jail in the alleged scam in Delhi’s liquor policy.
Now the name of the MP is being considered as a big blow for the party. However, the Aam Aadmi Party MP has completely denied such allegations.
The meeting was held at Sisodia’s house-
Manish Sisodia’s PA C. Arvind told the ED that a meeting had taken place at the former deputy CM’s house. AAP leader Raghav Chadha was also present in that meeting.
According to PA Arvind, Excise Commissioner of Punjab Varun Roojam, accused in excise policy scam Vijay Nair and several officials of Punjab Excise Directorate were also present in the meeting held at Sisodia’s house.
AAP MP Raghav Chadha gave clarification-
AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha has given clarification on this whole matter. Such news/reports that I have been named as an accused in a complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate are factually incorrect, Chadha said.
It appears to be part of a malicious campaign to damage my reputation and credibility, he added. He said that I have not been named as an accused or suspect in any of the complaints filed by the ED.
There is no allegation against me in the said complaints. It appears that the complaint mentions my name as a meeting attendee, although the basis for making such an allegation is not clear.
The AAP MP said that I emphatically and categorically deny the commission of any alleged offense in any manner in connection with the said meeting or otherwise.
Sisodia’s name in CBI’s charge sheet-
Earlier on April 25, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for the first time named Manish Sisodia as an accused in the supplementary charge sheet filed before the CBI court in the case.
The CBI has also named CA Buchi, a resident of Hyderabad. Babu Gorantla, liquor baron Amandeep Singh Dhall and Arjun Pandey have also been named in the supplementary charge sheet.
These people have been charged under IPC sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 201 and 420 besides provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
