The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday contended before the Delhi High Court that it will make the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) an accused in the money laundering case stemming out of the Delhi excise policy scam. The ED’s submission was made while opposing the bail plea of former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia in the money laundering case.
“AAP is going to be made a co-accused in the next prosecution complaint (charge sheet) to be filed in the case,” ED’s counsel contended before Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma, who is hearing arguments on Sisodia’s bail plea. The probe agency’s lawyer further said there are concerted efforts by accused persons to delay the process of framing of charges in the case.
