KEY POLITICAL CASES, HIGH-PROFILE ARRESTS SHAPE 2024 LEGAL LANDSCAPE

NEW DELHI: Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's arrest in the 2021-22 excise policy case, and the unfolding drama in connected cases, hogged the limelight in the subordinate judiciary in the national Capital in 2024.

Kejriwal, the first-ever sitting CM to be arrested in the country, was named as an accused in the case and held by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on March 21, and produced before a court the following day.

He was sent to ED's custody, first until March 28, and then until April 1.

However, Special Judge Niyay Bindu granted him bail on June 20, saying ED failed to give direct evidence against him concerning the proceeds of crime generated in the alleged scam. The Delhi High Court, however, stayed the order on June 21 on the request of the ED.

Kejriwal was again arrested, on this occasion by the CBI, on June 26 in the corruption case related to the alleged scam.

A court sent him to judicial custody on June 29 after being questioned by the CBI. The AAP national convener eventually got relief from the Supreme Court on July 12 in the ED case, and on September 13 in the CBI case which paved the way for his release from jail.
