    color:#1C1A1A">Digital Desk: Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, who has been
    imprisoned in a money laundering case, claimed today that the truth has
    triumphed in the case of Manish Sisodia and that the next number will be that
    of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. He claimed that Sisodia and Satyendar
    Jain are Kejriwal's puppets. In an interview with the media, Chandrashekhar
    stated that he had submitted his submission in writing.



    "The truth has
    triumphed, and the next number will be that of Arvind Kejriwal. I have provided
    everything in writing regarding liquor policy, and I will expose all of them...
    Their (Manish Sisodia and Satyendar Jain) master is Arvind Kejriwal. I've been
    working with them since 2015 "Chandrashekhar claimed.

    Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi Manish Sisodia on money laundering charges in
    connection with alleged irregularities in the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy.

    to 14 days in judicial custody in a related case filed by the Central Bureau of
    Investigation in connection with alleged corruption in the formulation and
    implementation of the excise policy for 2021-22. On February 26, the CBI
    arrested him.



    The arrest of the Aam
    Aadmi Party (AAP) leader by the ED comes a day before his bail hearing before
    the CBI court on Friday.

    laundering case linked to duping former Religare promoter Malvinder Singh's
    wife by posing as Union home and law secretaries last month.



    On Thursday evening,
    Chandrashekhar, 33, was taken into custody from a local jail under criminal
    sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), and a Delhi court
    later sentenced him to nine days in ED custody.

    case. The other two cases involve Chandrashekar allegedly defrauding Aditi
    Singh, the wife of Malvinder Singh's brother Shivinder Singh, of Rs 200 crore,
    and bribing Election Commission officials in order to obtain the AIADMK's 'two
    leaves' symbol for the V K Sasikala faction.



    According
    to the ED "Chandrasekhar is the mastermind behind this scam and has been
    involved in the criminal world since the age of 17. He is the subject of
    several FIRs (registered) against him...."
