The Enforcement Directorate (ED) stated before the Delhi High Court that it plans to name the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as a defendant in the money laundering case related to the Delhi excise policy scam.

The ED made this statement while opposing the bail plea of former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia in the money laundering case.

The ED’s counsel informed Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma that AAP will be included as a co-accused in the next prosecution complaint (charge sheet) filed in the case. The ED’s lawyer also mentioned that there are deliberate efforts by the accused individuals to delay the process of framing charges in the case.

Sisodia’s counsel argued for his bail by stating that the ED and the CBI are still making arrests in the money laundering and corruption case, indicating that the trial is unlikely to conclude soon.

Further arguments on the bail plea are ongoing.
