Delhi High Court to Hear CBI's Challenge Against Discharge of Liquor Policy Case Accused The Delhi High Court is set to address a plea filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) challenging the trial court's decision to discharge all accused in the liquor policy case. The case involves prominent AAP leaders Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia, among others. A bench led by Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma will hear the matter today. Last week, Justice Sharma had raised concerns about the trial court's order, noting that some of its observations appeared prima facie erroneous. This prompted further legal action, as Kejriwal sought to transfer the case to another bench, citing apprehensions of bias against Justice Sharma. However, the High Court rejected his request, leading Kejriwal to file a writ petition in the Supreme Court to transfer the CBI's petition from Justice Sharma's bench. The CBI's plea argues that the trial court's discharge order is flawed and seeks to overturn it. The case has drawn significant attention due to the high-profile nature of the accused and the potential implications for the legal proceedings. The court's decision on this matter could set a precedent for similar cases involving political figures and public officials. Live updates from the hearing will provide further insights into the court's reasoning and the potential outcomes. The case remains a focal point for legal and political observers, given its impact on the ongoing investigations and the broader implications for judicial independence and accountability.#manish_sisodia #central_bureau_of_investigation #delhi_high_court #arvind_kejriwal #justice_swarana_kanta_sharma
'Unwarranted': Why Delhi court rapped CBI for 'South Group' tag in liquor policy case A Delhi court discharged former chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, manish sisodia and 21 others in the liquor policy case, criticizing the CBI for using the term 'South Group'. The judge stated the label lacked legal basis, was arbitrary, and could prejudice proceedings, urging the agency to use neutral, evidence-based language. #Arvind_Kejriwal #Delhi_court #policy_case #liquor_policy #South_Group #rapped_CBI #minister_Arvind #manish_sisodia #court_rapped #court_discharged
