Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s wife Sunita has said that the entire system is obstructing her husband’s releas, drawing paralles to dictatorship and emergency.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) asserted that the BJP orchestrated Kejriwal’s arrest by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in a purported excise policy scam, just as the Supreme Court was considering granting him bail in a money laundering case. The CBI sought a five-day custody for Kejriwal following his formal arrest on Wednesday.

In a post on X, Sunita mentioned that Kejriwal had secured bail on June 20 in the money laundering case linked to the excise policy, but the Enforcement Directorate (ED) promptly obtained a stay. “The very next day, the CBI implicated him as an accused”, adding and on Wednesday he was arrested. She criticized the system for conspiring to keep Kejriwal in jail, denouncing it as a display of dictatorship and emergency rather than upholding the law.

The AAP condemned Kejriwal’s arrest, stating that the BJP was resorting to extreme measures. “The dictator has surpassed all bounds of cruelty!!” the party exclaimed, affirming Kejriwal’s resilience against oppression.
