The Enforcement Directorate has arrested Chanpreet Singh, who allegedly managed funds for the Aam Aadmi Party’s campaign during the 2022 Goa assembly polls, in connection with the Delhi excise policy case. “He was arrested on Friday and produced before a Delhi court on Saturday. He was sent to ED custody till April 18 by the court,” an official said. This is the 17th arrest in the case by the ED.
In its remand application filed in Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court last month, the ED had claimed that bribes received from the “South Group” were funnelled into the AAP’s Goa assembly poll campaign in 2021-2022 through a web of hawala transactions.
