Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has told the Enforcement Directorate that Vijay Nair, who is one of the arrested accused in the alleged liquor scam, used to report to Ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj, and not to him, ASG SV Raju said in the court on Monday (April 1). 

Vijay Nair, the former CEO of events company Only Much Louder (OML) who had been associated with the Aam Aadmi Party, was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in 2022.

The names of Atishi and Saurabh were taken in the court for the first time. Both the ministers were present in the courtroom when the ED's lawyer took their name quoting Kejriwal. Notably, AAP MP Sanjay Singh and Manish Sisodia are already in the Tihar Jail for their alleged involvement in the liquor scam. Arvind Kejriwal is the most high-profile leader to be arrested in the AAP, and was sent to Tihar Jail where he will join his party colleagues, as the court sent him to 15-day judicial custody till April 15. Party leader Satyendar Jain is also in the Tihar jail, however, in connection with another money laundering case.
