Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigators, currently holding Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in custody for over a week, have reportedly now, contacted Apple to help gain access to his iPhone.
According to the sources, ED has officially reached out to Apple, the manufacturer of the phone, in an attempt to gain access to Kejriwal’s iPhone. However, they were informed that a password was required to retrieve any data.
The ED does not have any recovered electronic evidence against the Chief Minister in the form of his personal computers or desktops but four mobile phones, including his, were confiscated. On the night of his arrest on March 21, around Rs 70,000 was found and left untouched in his residence. The Chief Minister had switched off his iPhone and hasn’t shared his password, sources said.
Senior officials associated with the investigation revealed that during questioning, the Chief Minister indicated that accessing his phone data and conversations would provide insights into the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) “election strategy” and pre-election alliances.
