The Delhi Rouse Avenue Court issued a fresh summons to Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal asking him to appear physically on March 16, after the Enforcement Directorate filed a fresh complaint before it seeking prosecution of the AAP leader for skipping multiple summonses issued to him in a money laundering case in connection with now-scrapped the Delhi excise policy.
The latest complaint pertains to Arvind Kejriwal not honouring summonses no. 4 to 8 sent by the federal probe agency under Section 50 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The court of additional chief metropolitan magistrate (ACMM) Divya Malhotra had listed the matter for hearing on Thursday.
The AAP national convenor said the notices being sent to him would stop if he joined the BJP. The ED had earlier moved a local court seeking Arvind Kejriwal’s prosecution for not attending the first three summonses issued to him in the money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy.
