The Enforcement Directorate (ED) will try to conduct the Arund Kejriwal related liquor scam hearing at a fast pace. The investigating agency will try to complete this entire process within a year. If that happens then the final outcome of this case may come out by the end of this year. As the Delhi Assembly elections will also be held next year in January-February 2025, this may have an impact on the Delhi Assembly elections as well. There is talk that the Aam Aadmi Party may try to contest the assembly elections under the leadership of Arvind Kejriwal by keeping his wife Sunita Kejriwal at the forefront.
According to information received from sources, the enforcement directorate of the investigative agency has almost completed its investigative process on the liquor scam. Almost all the accused in the scam were interrogated, based on the statements of the accused, Aam Aadmi Party candidates, workers and party officials from Goa were also interrogated to establish the money trail. Only after finding solid evidence in all these investigations, the investigating authority took the Prime Minister into custody.
But right now Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, K. Kavita, some of the leaders of the southern lobby and the Aam Aadmi Party are yet to be interrogated face-to-face so that all the connections of the case can be revealed. So far this process could not be completed due to the absence of the Prime Minister. But the way the Delhi High Court took its stand on Arvind Kejriwal, it opened the way for the investigating agency to investigate.
