 "Delhi liquor policy 'scam': Setback for AAP as ED names party as accused")
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Friday told the Supreme Court it has named the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as an accused in the Delhi liquor policy case.
The statement was made by Additional Solicitor General (ASG), SV Raju during the top court's hearing in AAP leader and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's petition challenging his arrest by the ED. The ASG said that the prosecution complaint will be filed today by the ED, in which the AAP has been named as an accused.
The development followed two days after the probe agency had informed the Delhi High Court of its intention to designate AAP an accused in the case.
The case pertains to a money laundering probe linked to the alleged irregularities in the Delhi liquor policy scam.
