Delhi Excise Policy: Court Calls Case 'Premeditated', Orders Inquiry on CBI Officer

  • A Delhi court on Friday termed the Delhi excise policy case “premeditated and choreographed”.
  • The court ordered departmental proceedings against the CBI officer who led the probe.
  • Special Judge Jitendra Singh stated there was “no material at all” to justify naming Kuldeep Singh as accused number one.
  • The court discharged all 23 accused, including Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia, citing failure to establish a prima facie case.
  • The case stemmed from a 2022 CBI investigation into alleged corruption linked to Delhi’s 2021-22 excise policy.
