Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi Chief Minister, Arrested in Corruption Case
Alleged Corruption Case
Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on Tuesday in connection with an alleged corruption case. This marks the third arrest of an AAP leader in the same case.
Delhi High Court Dismissal
The Delhi High Court dismissed Kejriwal's plea to quash the charges against him. The court's decision has paved the way for Kejriwal's arrest.
Remand to Custody
Following his arrest, the court ordered that Kejriwal be remanded in custody. The exact nature of the charges against him has not yet been revealed by the authorities.
Political Turmoil
Kejriwal's arrest has sent shockwaves through Indian politics. Kejriwal has been a prominent figure in India's anti-corruption movement and is widely seen as a potential challenger to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Ongoing Investigation
The investigation into the alleged corruption case is ongoing, and it remains to be seen whether Kejriwal will face formal charges. The arrest of the AAP leader is likely to further fuel the ongoing political turmoil in India.
