So now ED has been openly tasked with putting all the leaders close to Kejriwal in jail, she said.Atishi also said that whenever ED comes to raid someone, it clearly mentions under which case the raid is been conducted, but in yesterdays case ED did not mention the reason. The raids by Enforcement Directorate were conducted at nearly 10 locations, including the premises of the partys Rajya Sabha MP ND Gupta among others connected to AAP. These raids were part of a money laundering probe being conducted by the agency, according to the sources.It is to be noted here that the raids have come even as the agency moved a Delhi court against the AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal for skipping its summons for the fifth time in a case linked to the Excise policy case. Before this, a team from the Delhi crime branch visited the residence of Arvind Kejriwal in civil lines and served a notice to join a probe into allegations that the BJP attempted to poach MLAs to topple his government.
