The CBI showed much evidence of Manish Sisodia during interrogation. When he was asked about this evidence, he could not give any answer. Sisodia is also accused of destroying several pieces of evidence in the excise scam case.

A Supreme Court Bench led by Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud has refused to intervene in Manish Sisodia’s case and asked him to avail alternative remedies.
