MP Kapil Sibal On Arrest Of Hemant Soren: “Something like this would hardly have happened in the history of India…”

On Supreme Court refusing to entertain Hemant Soren’s petition against ED arrest, Senior Advocate and Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal says, “I think something like this would hardly have happened in the history of India when a sitting Chief Minister is arrested. The Supreme Court should tell us in which case we can come here and in which case we cannot come here…This government wants no opposition Chief Minister. Now they will do the same with Arvind Kejriwal as their motive is there should be a double-engine government and there should be no opposition government. Now 10 more cases will be imposed on Hemant Soren. So that he does not come out of jail and you get benefits in the 2024 elections. If the Supreme Court does not listen to us then where will we go?”
