Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal did not appear before the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the liquor policy case on November 2.
The probe agency had issued a summons to him on October 30 asking him to appear for questioning at 11 a.m. on November 2
Kejriwal called the ED notice 'illegal and politically motivated' and demanded the probe agency withdraw it.
The AAP had alleged that Kejriwal will be the first to be arrested as part of the BJP's plan to target top INDIA alliance leaders ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and the ED summons were an attempt to finish the party that is in power in Delhi and Punjab.
It is alleged that the Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 to grant licences to liquor traders allowed cartelisation and favoured certain dealers who had allegedly paid bribes for it, a charge repeatedly refuted by the AAP.
The policy was subsequently scrapped and the Delhi lieutenant governor recommended a CBI probe, following which the ED registered a case under the PMLA.
