Delhi excise policy: SC adjourns Kejriwal's pleas for bail, against arrest for Sept 5

A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan posted the matter on September 5 for hearing and granted one-week further time to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to file a reply in one of the pleas.

Additional Solicitor General SV Raju appearing for CBI sought time to file an affidavit in one of the petitions and submitted that the agency has filed an affidavit in the other petition.

Senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi representing Kejriwal told the bench that the affidavit was filed on Thursday night at 8 pm with a deliberate design that the same wouldn't reach the bench.
