Notably, the Supreme Court of India granted Kejriwal interim bail from 10 May to 1 June 2024 to allow him to campaign for the 2024 general election. Following the expiration of this bail, Kejriwal surrendered at Tihar Jail on 2 June 2024.
Political rivals, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), accused Kejriwal and his allies of selling liquor licenses and receiving kickbacks from private vendors. The ED claimed it had evidence of AAP receiving millions of dollars from a liquor group. Kejriwal was remanded until 28 March 2024 and remained in ED custody, with the Delhi High Court rejecting his petition against the arrest.
The new update from the Arvind Kejriwal’s Liquor Policy Case reported that Arvind Kejriwal's custody has now been extended till July 3, 2024.
