Amit Shah Says Interim Bail To Arvind Kejriwal Not A Clean Chit From Supreme Court

Supreme Court’s interim bail to Delhi Chief Minister Kejriwal is not a clean chit for him, said Union Minister Amit Shah on Saturday. He stressed that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader, who is an accused in a money laundering case linked to the alleged excise policy scam, will have to surrender before the investigation agency on June 2 as the apex court granted him bail just to campaign for Lok Sabha Election 2024.

Addressing the media at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) office in Hyderabad, the Union Minister said if Kejriwal thinks interim bail to him is a clean chit, then his “understanding of the law is at fault.”

“Arvind Kejriwal has been given interim bail for the election campaign. He prayed in front of the Supreme Court that his arrest was wrong, but the Supreme Court did not agree to it. He filed a bail petition which was also rejected,” Shah said

“The court has given only interim bail till June 1 and on June 2 he has to surrender in front of the agencies. If Arvind Kejriwal considers this as a clean chit, then his understanding of the law is weak,” the BJP leader added.

Kejriwal walked out of Tihar Jail on Friday after the Supreme Court granted him interim bail after 40 days in judicial custody.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor was granted interim bail till June 1 and will have to surrender and go back to prison on June 2.

AAP leaders said the interim bail granted to Kejriwal will be a “game changer” for both AAP and the INDIA bloc’s campaign as the Lok Sabha polls enter the crucial phases in the coming weeks.

Opposition leaders also welcomed Kejriwal’s interim bail, saying the “fight to save democracy” will now be with more intensity.
