    CBI asked me about 56 questions; entire excise policy case is false: Arvind Kejriwal

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said the CBI asked him around 56 questions regarding the excise policy case and he answered them all.

    “I want to say that the entire excise policy case is false. They do not have any evidence that the AAP is wrong. It’s a result of dirty politics,” he told reporters.

    He was speaking to the media at his residence after around nine hours of questioning by the probe agency.

    “AAP is a kattar honest party. We did nothing wrong. They asked me 56 questions. The total case is fake. They don’t have anything against us. No evidence. The entire case is bad politics,” Kejriwal said.

    As of now, no date has been given to Kejriwal for the second round of questioning.

    Thanking the CBI officials for their “hospitality”, Kejriwal said, “They asked me questions in a friendly and harmonious manner. I answered all the questions asked by them.”

    “The CBI asked around 56 questions regarding the excise policy, including when and why the policy was started,” he added.

    The AAP chief, who arrived at the heavily fortified agency headquarters at around 11 am in his official black SUV, was taken to the first-floor office of the Anti Corruption Branch where he was quizzed by the investigation team, officials said.

    A team of senior officials recorded his statement. The CBI has filed a charge sheet in the matter and now they are all set to file a supplementary charge sheet.

    Kejriwal was asked about AAP leader Vijay Nair, businessman Sameer Mahendru and how the policy got leaked before it was implemented.

    Delhi’s then Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was arrested by the CBI and the ED in the case and is presently behind bars.

    The Delhi Police had imposed Section 144 in and around the CBI’s headquarters to avoid any problems and detained 1,305 AAP workers.

  • ‘CBI ignored key facts in Viveka murder case’, says Avinash Reddy

    ‘CBI ignored key facts in Viveka murder case’, says Avinash Reddy

    [ad_1]

    Kadapa: Kadapa MP, Y.S. Avinash Reddy, whose father Y.S. Bhaskar Reddy was on Sunday arrested by the CBI in former minister Y.S. Vivekananda Reddy’s murder case, alleged that ignoring some key facts in the case, the CBI was projecting them as the accused.

    He claimed that Vivekananda Reddy’s son-in-law knew about murder but he did not inform the police. The MP claimed that the CBI did not question the slain leader’s son-in-law about suppressing the information.

    Avinash Reddy, who rushed to Kadapa from Hyderabad after learning about his father’s arrest, said the investigation should be based on facts and not to target individuals.

    MS Education Academy

    He said the new investigating officials of the CBI were doing the same thing which earlier officers had done. He said they had already brought this to the notice of the higher-ups.

    The YSR Congress Party MP, who is cousin of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, said though Dastagiri (Shaik Dastagiri, one of the accused in the case) murdered Vivekananda Reddy, the CBI officials made him an approver and released him on bail.

    The Lok Sabha member alleged that the CBI did not take into account the statement of Dastagiri or watchman Ranganna.

    He said the CBI officials and Vivekananda Reddy’s daughter Suneetha were taking the probe into a particular direction.

    “We will uphold the good and we will prove our innocence,” he said, adding that they are ready to face any probe.

    The Kadapa MP said truth and justice should prevail in the case but unfortunately the CBI has stooped to this level by ignoring facts and giving importance to small things.

    Avinash Reddy claimed that the CBI did not probe the disappearance of stamp paper from the house of Vivekananda Reddy and also did not take into consideration the letter written by the slain leader.

    He reiterated that Vivekananda Reddy had changed his name to Sheikh Mohammed Akbar in 2010 to marry another woman and that he had a son Shaenshah from second wife. He claimed that Vivekananda Reddy wanted to give his property to second wife and that round seals and documents relating to this were found in his house. He wondered why the CBI was not probing the missing stamp papers.

    Killing of Atiq Ahmed as heinous as Umesh Pal murder case: Mayawati

    [ad_1]

    Lucknow: BSP chief Mayawati on Sunday said the killing of gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf in police custody in Prayagraj raises serious questions over the style of functioning of the Uttar Pradesh government.

    It would be better if the Supreme Court takes cognisance of this “extremely serious and worrisome” incident, which is being discussed across the country, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister said.

    In a series of tweets, she said, “Now, instead of ‘rule of law by law’ in Uttar Pradesh, how appropriate is it that it becomes ‘encounter Pradesh’? Something to think about.”

    MS Education Academy

    “The shooting dead of Atiq Ahmed, who was brought from Gujarat jail and his brother Ashraf, who was brought from Bareilly jail last night in Prayagraj, in police custody, is just as heinous as the Umesh Pal murder case. It raises serious questions on the law and order of the UP government, and its style of functioning,” she said.

    BJP leader Umesh Pal was killed by Atiq’s men in 2005.

    Gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed (60) and his brother Ashraf were shot dead at point-blank range by three men posing as journalists in the middle of a media interaction on Saturday night while police personnel were escorting them to a medical college in Prayagraj for a checkup.

    The brothers, both jailed in Prayagraj, were in handcuffs when they were killed in full view of camera crews around 10 pm. The horrifying visuals were circulated widely on social media platforms and television channels. The last rites of Ahmed’s son Asad, who was gunned down in a police encounter in Jhansi on April 13, were performed here just hours before the shooting.

    Briefing reporters about the incident, Commissioner of Police, Prayagraj, Ramit Sharma said the three assailants, who were arrested immediately after the incident, had joined the group of reporters who were trying to get sound bites from Ahmed and Ashraf.

    “In accordance with a mandatory legal requirement, Atiq Ahmed and Ashraf were brought to the hospital for a medical examination. According to preliminary information, three men posing as journalists approached them and opened fire. Ahmed and Ashraf were killed in the attack. The attackers have been held and are being questioned,” Sharma said.

    Officials said Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has formed a three-member judicial commission to probe the killing of Ahmed and his brother.

  • ED freezes 150 bank accounts in illegal betting case

    ED freezes 150 bank accounts in illegal betting case

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) said on Saturday that it recently carried out a search operation at a fintech company which resulted in the identification and freezing of 150 bank accounts in a case related to an illegal betting racket involving a person named Rakesh R. Rajdev and others.

    The ED said that these accounts were involved in the layering of funds received from individual persons, who placed bets through the website www.wolf777.com.

    “Subsequent to the searches, an amount of Rs 3.05 crore lying in 10 bank accounts was freezed under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA),” said an ED official.

    The ED said that the bank statements of rest of the entities whose accounts were freezed during the course of search were called for from the banks and analysed by the probe agency.

    “In the account analysis, we found that funds amounting to Rs 46.10 crore are lying in these accounts, which were routed through various dummy entities. Thus, a total amount of Rs 49.15 crore has been seized by the ED in this case till date,” the official said.

    The ED initiated the investigation after recording an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) based on an FIR lodged by the DCB police station in Ahmedabad.

    During investigation, proceeds of crime, i.e., the money generated through the betting app www.wolf777.com, were traced and it was found that bank accounts in the names of various fictitious entities were opened for routing and layering of money which was then sent abroad through bogus entities in the guise of import.

  • ‘Always respected Kavitha Akka, but..’: Sukesh counters BRS MLC in Delhi excise case

    ‘Always respected Kavitha Akka, but..’: Sukesh counters BRS MLC in Delhi excise case

    [ad_1]

    Hyderabad: Alleged Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar on Saturday purportedly wrote a new letter from the Tihar jail addressing news channels, media, and BRS MLC Kavitha Kalvakuntla who on Friday said that she never met Sukesh and doesn’t know who he is.

    Sukesh, in the handwritten letter, mentioned the WhatsApp numbers via which he was in contact with the MLC and he said that the alleged screenshots that came out of the chats are in between him and Delhi former minister Satyendar Jain “discussing the delivery of Rs 15 crore cash to ‘sister Hyd’ @ KavithaTRS and AK Bhai is Arvind Kejriwal,” he alleged.

    Sukesh, while responding to the question of how he knows Telugu, said that his mother tongues are both Telugu and Tamil. “…Apart from all the other languages I know, from my childhood at home my parents speak in Telugu and Tamil, so it is my mother tongue. So these silly things are being made up only to divert from the main issue by the BRS leaders,” he wrote.

    MS Education Academy

    On Sukesh’s allegation that there is a nexus between Aam Aadmi Party, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal and BRS MLC Kavitha Kalvakuntla in the Delhi Excise policy case, the MLC denied the allegations and said that Sukesh is being used as a ‘ploy’ being used by the BJP to defame the Telangana government, chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao and his family members.

    “A financial culprit released a nameless letter and BJP MLA Raghunanandan Rao wrote a letter to the Election Commission based on it. Nizamabad BJP MP D Arvind, as part of the BJP’s tool kit, is using it to defame me on social media,” she wrote in an open letter.

    She said that some media channels and journalists are not following ‘basic values’ and are sticking to ‘political agenda’.

    “I do not have any acquaintance with Sukesh Chandrashekhar. I don’t know him. But without getting to know the facts of the matter, some media channels have spread lies due to over-enthusiasm, The same was done regarding my cell phones some time ago and they went back on it,” she said.

  • Defamation case: Maha court grants Rahul permanent exemption from appearance

    Defamation case: Maha court grants Rahul permanent exemption from appearance

    [ad_1]

    Thane: A court in Maharashtra’s Thane district on Saturday granted a permanent exemption to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi from appearing before it in a defamation case filed against him by a Rashtriya Sawyamsevak Sangh (RSS) functionary.

    Bhiwandi First Class Judicial Magistrate Laxmikant C Wadikar who heard Gandhi’s application filed through his counsel Narayan Iyer observed that the Congress leader deserves a permanent exemption.

    The magistrate also set June 3 for recording evidence in the defamation suit filed by local RSS worker Rajesh Kunte.

    MS Education Academy

    Kunte had in 2014 filed a private complaint before the Bhiwandi magistrate’s court after watching Gandhi’s speech where he allegedly accused the RSS of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination. Kunte claimed this statement slandered the reputation of the RSS.

    Gandhi had appeared before the court in June 2018 and pleaded not guilty.

    “Accused Rahul Rajiv Gandhi is hereby exempted from appearance in the court till the further order passed by the court subject to following conditions,” reads the order, a copy of which was accessed by PTI.

    “Accused to undertake that his duly designated advocate punctually and regularly appears before court on each and every scheduled date and conduct the trial in absence of accused,” says one of the conditions. “Accused to remain present in court as and when directed,” reads another.

    Rahul Gandhi, who was recently disqualified as an MP after his conviction by a Surat court in a defamation case, had last year sought exemption from appearance in the Bhiwandi court on the grounds that he was a Delhi resident and a Lok Sabha member who had to visit his constituency (Wayanad), attend party work and travel a lot. Gandhi had requested that whenever required, he be allowed to be represented by his lawyer in the hearing.

    Kunte recently argued that since Gandhi is no longer a parliamentarian, he should not be given an exemption in the matter.

    The Surat court had on March 23 sentenced Gandhi to two years in jail in a 2019 criminal defamation case filed against him over his “why all thieves have Modi surname” remarks. The court also granted him bail and suspended the sentence for 30 days to allow him to appeal in a higher court. The next day, he was disqualified as a member of the Lok Sabha.

    Delhi Excise scam case: CBI summons Arvind Kejriwal for questioning

    [ad_1]

    The CBI called Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal for questioning in the Delhi excise policy case on Sunday (April 16).

    The summons comes as AAP leader and former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia is being held in connection with the same investigation, and other arrests have been made by investigators.

    Kejriwal has also been summoned by the Goa Police for an alleged defacement of public property, for which he must appear for questioning on April 27. The CBI has summoned the chief minister for the first time in the case, despite the BJP’s claims that Kejriwal was the brains behind the alleged fraud.

    MS Education Academy

    Kejriwal stated that all AAP leaders must be prepared to go to jail as the Election Commission formally recognised the party as a national party.
