A PIL was filed in the Delhi High Court on Friday seeking AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal’s removal from the post of chief minister following his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate in an excise policy-linked money laundering case.
According to court sources, the petition has some defects and will be listed for hearing once these are cured.
The petitioner also sought Kejriwal’s removal.
The plea said Kejriwal has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on March 21 in the money laundering case related to the alleged liquor policy scam and referred to the Delhi High Court’s decision not to grant interim protection to him from coercive action in the case.
The ED has produced Kejriwal in a court and sought his 10-day custody. The hearing is underway.
