In Delhi Court's Custody Order For Arvind Kejriwal, A Caveat For CBI

The Rouse Avenue court has said Arvind Kejriwal can meet wife Sunita for an hour daily and can receive home cooked food
The special CBI court that denied relief to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the liquor policy case has said that on the basis of material on record, it cannot be said at this stage that the arrest is illegal, but warned that the probe agency should not be "overzealous".
Arvind Kejriwal has been sent to CBI's custody for three days -- two less than what the agency had asked for. He was arrested by the CBI inside the Rouse Avenue Court. Earlier, the Rouse Avenue court had granted him bail, but the Delhi High Court paused it and reserved its order. Mr Kejriwal moved the Supreme Court, but got no relief. The high court thereafter denied him bail.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader's wife has alleged that the "whole system" is trying to ensure he stays in jail. "Arvind Kejriwal got bail on June 20. Immediately ED got a stay. The very next day CBI made him an accused. And today he was arrested. The whole system is trying to ensure that the man does not come out of jail. This is not law. This is dictatorship, this is emergency," Sunita Kejriwal said in a post on 'X'.
