Kejriwal to skip ED summons, leaves Delhi for Vipassana camp
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is likely to skip an Enforcement Directorate summons - for a second time - in connection with the liquor policy case, sources told NDTV Wednesday. Mr Kejriwal was scheduled to depart yesterday but postponed his plans to attend the INDIA opposition bloc meeting.
Amid furious speculation he could be arrested on that day (speculation that continues to persist), Mr Kejriwal called the summons "illegal" and "politically motivated", and demanded it be withdrawn.
Mr Kejriwal can only skip a summons thrice before he faces a non-bailable arrest warrant.
In April, Mr Kejriwal was questioned by the Central Bureau of Investigation - as a witness - for nine hours, after which he slammed the agency. "The CBI asked me 56 questions (but) everything is fake. I am convinced they don't have anything on us... not a single piece of evidence," he declared.
