Sukesh Chandrashekhar releases alleged WhatsApp chats with K. Kavitha, Satyendar Jain

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar has made public his alleged WhatsApp chats with jailed AAP leader Satyendar Jain and K. Kavitha, BRS leader and daughter of Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao.
Presently lodged at the Mandoli Jail in the national capital, Chandrashekhar is accused of extorting Rs 200 crore from a businessman’s wife.
In the purported conversations released on Wednesday, Chandrashekhar alleges that there is a connection between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, and the BRS leader with regard to the Delhi excise policy scam.

In a letter directed to Delhi Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena, Chandrashekhar has accused AAP and Kejriwal of having multiple contracts and business deals with him.
He wrote, “This very application and attached chats expose the link between the Aam Aadmi party, Arvind Kejriwal and BRS leader K. Kavitha, who are involved in the Delhi liquor scam.”
The allegations levelled by Chandrashekhar have raised concerns about the role of political leaders in the liquor policy scam. Further inquiries will likely provide additional insights into the mater.
Chandrashekhar in his letter stated that the very application and chats attached show the nexus between the Aam Aadmi party, Arvind Kejriwal and Kavitha, who are allegedly involved in the Delhi liquor policy scam.
According to Chandrashekhar, the chats submitted to the L-G will aid the ongoing investigation into the liquor scam.

“The said chats are with regard to Rs 15 crore given by me to Arvind kejriwal and Satyendar Jain which was asked to be delivered to K. Kavitha of the BRS in Hyderabad,” said the letter released through his legal counsel Anant Malik.
According to the screenshots of the alleged chats, it is evident that Chandrashekhar had a coded conversation with a person whose number was saved as ‘Kavita Akka TRS’.
In one of the messages, the sender wrote, “AK bro package has to be given. It’s ready with me.”
Chandrashekhar alleged that this package refers to an amount of Rs 15 crore.
In another chat with a mobile number not saved on his phone, and claimed to be of Satyendar Jain, one of the messages read, “Bro Ghee tin ready. Yes bro 15 Kg.”
Chandrashekhar claimed that in their code words, ‘ghee’ refers to money and 15 kg meant Rs 15 crore.
He also wrote “inform big bro” in the same chat, to which the receiver replied, “AK Bhai knows”.

Satyendar Jain seeks transfer of corruption, money laundering cases to another judge

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Jailed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Satyender Jain on Tuesday asked a Delhi court to transfer two cases related to alleged corruption and money laundering brought against him by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to another judge.
During the hearing, the former Delhi Minister informed Special Judge Vikas Dhull, who is overseeing both cases, that he had filed transfer applications with the Principal District and Sessions Judge.
The proceedings in the CBI corruption case have been temporarily halted by the Principal District Judge until May 4, when arguments on Jain’s transfer application will be heard. Meanwhile, a similar application in the ED’s money laundering case is set to be heard on April 13.

Jain has requested that Special Judge Dhull postpone the matter “to see the outcome of said transfer applications”.
In response to a court inquiry, the ED’s Special Public Prosecutor confirmed that he had received an advance copy of Jain’s application related to the money laundering case.
The court subsequently adjourned the proceedings.
Jain was placed under arrest on May 30, 2022, by the central agency under Section 19 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002.
The ED had initiated a money laundering investigation on the basis of the FIR registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation in 2017 under Sections 13(2) read with 13(1)(e) of the PC Act, 1988 against Jain, his wife Poonam Jain, and Ajit Prasad Jain, Sunil Kumar Jain, Vaibhav Jain, and Ankush Jain.

A charge sheet was filed by the CBI on December 3, 2018, against Jain, his wife Poonam Jain, and other accused.
Earlier, the ED had provisionally attached immovable properties worth Rs 4.81 crore belonging to companies beneficially owned and controlled by Jain on March 31, 2022.

Satyender Jain moves court seeking transfer of two CBI, ED cases against him

[ad_1]
New Delhi: AAP leader Satyender Jain has moved a Delhi court seeking transfer of two cases lodged against him by the CBI and the ED for alleged corruption and money laundering to another judge.
Jain informed Special Judge Vikas Dhull, hearing both the cases, on Tuesday that he has filed applications before Principal District and Sessions Judge for transfer of the cases.
The Principal District judge has stayed the proceedings in the corruption case filed by the CBI till May 4, when he is scheduled to hear the arguments on the application, while he is likely to hear a similar application in the ED’s money laundering case on April 13.

Jain requested Special Judge Dhull to adjourn the matter “to see the outcome of said transfer applications”.
On court’s query, ED’s Special Public Prosecutor confirmed receiving the advance copy of the application in the money laundering matter.
The court, thereafter, adjourned the proceedings.
The ED had initiated money laundering investigation on the basis of a First Information Report (FIR) registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on August 24, 2017 under the Prevention of Corruption Act against Jain and others.
The CBI alleged that Jain, while holding the office as a Minister in the Government of Delhi during February 14, 2015 to May 31, 2017, had acquired assets disproportionate to his known sources of income.

Families of Sisodia, Jain yet to vacate official bungalows: Sources

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The families of former Delhi ministers Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain were yet to vacate their official bungalows, sources said on Tuesday.
Sisodia and Jain had been asked to vacate the bungalows on or before March 21, according to a letter by the Public Works Department dated March 14.
Weeks after their resignation from the Delhi Cabinet, their bungalows were allotted to newly inducted ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj.
The PWD also asked Atishi and Bharadwaj to give their acceptance within eight days of the issuance of the letter. There was no official word on the matter from the government.
Sisodia had been staying at the AB-17 bungalow on Mathura Road, which was earlier with former Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit.
The bungalow was allotted to Sisodia in 2015 when the AAP came to power in Delhi.
Jain was staying at the 2, Raj Niwas Marg, Civil Lines bungalow, which has now been allotted to Bharadwaj.
Following the resignations of Sisodia and Jain, currently in Tihar jail in cases corruption and money laundering respectively, two Cabinet berths had fallen vacant.

Their resignations were accepted by the President on March 7.
Atishi and Bharadwaj were later inducted into the Cabinet.
Sisodia was arrested by the CBI on February 26 in connection with alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy for 2021-22. Jain was arrested the Enforcement Directorate last year in a money laundering case.

Arrested AAP ministers Sisodia, Satyendar Jain quit Delhi cabinet

[ad_1]
Delhi ministers Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain on Tuesday resigned from their posts in the state cabinet.
According to a report by ANI, chief minister Arvind Kejriwal accepted their resignation.
Manish Sisodia has been in control of 18 ministries, including Satyendar Jain’s health portfolio, who has been in jail for 10 months.
The resignations followed as the BJP questioned why arrested leaders remained in the Delhi administration.
The Delhi cabinet currently has five ministers, including Kejriwal.
This comes very soon after the Supreme Court’s decision to decline a plea by arrested Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia challenging his arrest by the CBI in an alleged case of corruption in the now-withdrawn Delhi liquor policy.

Delhi HC adjourns hearing bail plea of Satyendar Jain and his aides

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Monday adjourned hearing in bail plea of jailed Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain and co-accused Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain in a Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case.
On February 8, advocate Sushil Kumar Gupta appearing for Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain, the two aides of the Minister had concluded his submissions before a bench of Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma.
He had contended that in the present case, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) is just investigating the predicate offence and not the money laundering case, and that the ED had presumptively established a case of disproportionate assets (DA), but this could not be their case because the agency must first establish the existence of a scheduled offence.
Citing the Vijay Madan Lal Judgment of the apex court, Gupta had argued that the role that the ED has given to his clients (Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain) in the current case should be different from the CBI case, but the ED has accused them under the same rules.
He had further argued that the “proceeds of crime is the core” that needed to be established in the present case by the ED to have a case against his clients.
Earlier, Gupta, on behalf of his clients, had said: “We have been roped in because the company, as per the Enforcement Directorate, belonged to Satyendar Jain.”
He had added: “We are stating that it is our company, not Satyendar Jain’s.”
The Jains’ counsel had said that Satyendar Jain has nothing to do with the company and that all the companies belong to them.

Special Judge Vikas Dhull had denied the two bail on November 17 last year.
Earlier, Satyendar Jain’s counsel N. Hariharan had asked how is the minister involved in the present case and how is he related to it as the money belonged to Ankush and Vaibhav Jain, which came back to their account without any premium.
“My (Satyendar Jain’s) assets before and after the cheque period remained the same,” he had said.

Bengaluru casteist skit row: Six Jain University students suspended

[ad_1]
Following the use of casteist slurs against SC/STs and Dr BR Ambedkar in a skit performed by the Jain University Centre for Management Studies students at a college festival, six students have been suspended over the incident.
The suspended students were part of a skit that displayed caste discrimination, insulted India’s constitution writer Dr B R Ambedkar and also took a dig at the reservation system in the country.
#Casteism Jain University Bangaluru insulted Babasaheb. The skit they performed on February 4 showcased a man from a lowered caste background trying to date an upper-caste woman. The makers turned BR Ambedkar into ‘Beer Ambedkar’ and used several other problematic phrases….. pic.twitter.com/Q147vR3k4q
— The Dalit Voice (@ambedkariteIND) February 10, 2023
A number of police complaints we’re registered against the students. Aakshay Bansode, state member Yuva of Vanchit Bahujan Aaghadi filed a complaint in Nanded district of Maharashtra seeking strict action.
“The skit is highly casteist and performed with serious ill motives and to intentionally insult and humiliate the community and people belonging to it. Moreover, the derogatory and defamatory statement about Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar is also highly offensive at large and showcases the intention of the performers and the university authorities as this act went through various checks yet was allowed to perform on stage and publish on social media,” Bansode’s complaint stated.
An FIR against the principal and senior officials of the university has been filed at the Siddapura police station in Jayanagar.
Postgraduate students and research fellows of Bangalore University have also filed a police complaint at the Jnanabharati police station.
Earlier in the day students of NSUI Karnataka and many Dalit organisations protested in front of the Jain college demanding action against those involved in the skit. Police were called to control the protest.
The skit was performed on February 4 by a group called ‘The Delroys Boys’ as part of ‘MadAds,’ a segment at the fest where the participants had to advertise imaginary products along lines of humour.

The students have reportedly tendered an unconditional apology to the college management. However, the issue seems to brew and not settle down. On Thursday evening a group of students published an online petition on Jhatkaa.org bringing the incident to light.
