The Enforcement Directorate has not been able to establish a money trail against any AAP leader despite multiple raids, arrests and two year-long investigations in the alleged excise policy scam, Delhi Minister Atishi claimed on Saturday.

The AAP leader also said the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday merely based on the statement of one Sharad P Reddy.

Reddy, of Aurobindo Pharma, was arrested by the ED in November in connection with the excise policy case. He gave crores of rupees to the BJP through electoral bonds, she claimed.

“Investigation is underway into Delhi’s so-called liquor scam. It is said that huge profits were made to the liquor companies. But the biggest question is that if there is a money trail, where did that money go and into whose account it went? Even after hundreds of raids and arrests, not a single penny was found from any leader. The Supreme Court has also asked where the money trail has taken place,” she said at a press conference.

“Two days ago Arvind Kejriwal was arrested based on the statement of Sharath Chandra Reddy in the so-called scam. He is the owner of 2 more companies including Aurbindo Pharma. On 9 November 2022, Sharath Reddy had said that he never met Arvind Kejriwal, he has nothing to do with him,” she said.

“After that ED arrests him and after staying in jail for several months, he changes his statement,” she added.

Atishi also said that in what was the “biggest expose” of the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Reddy’s company gave money to the BJP through electoral bonds.

“The money trail link of BJP-Sharath Reddy has been exposed in front of the country. Sharath Reddy’s companies gave money to the BJP through Electoral Bonds. First Rs 4.5 crore and after arrest Rs 55 crore were given to BJP,” she alleged.

“I challenge Prime Minister Modi and ED that money trail has now been found in the liquor scam. All money has gone in the bank accounts of the BJP,” Atishi said.

The Delhi minister further alleged that the BJP received “proceeds of crime” in its bank accounts and said the central agency should arrest the saffron party’s chief JP Nadda in the matter.

A local court on Friday remanded Kejriwal in ED custody till March 28 “for his detailed and sustained interrogation” regarding his role in the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.
