The Delhi High Court has taken notice of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s petition concerning the Delhi liquor policy alleged scam case, while Kejriwal remains in Tihar Jail. The Tihar Jail Superintendent has filed an affidavit opposing Kejriwal’s plea, emphasizing that as AAP chief, he cannot receive special permissions. The affidavit cites Rule 585 of the Delhi Jail Rules, stating uniform treatment for all prisoners to avoid setting a precedent. Currently, Kejriwal is allowed two weekly video meetings with his lawyers, and he has petitioned for two additional meetings to discuss legal matters in detail.
