CBI questions Manish Sisodia’s close aide in Delhi excise policy case

Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is investigating former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia’s close aide Devender Sharma in the excise policy issue, according to reports.

The interrogation is still going on at the CBI headquarters in the nation’s capital. Meanwhile, the ED will examine Sisodia in Tihar jail in connection with the case, according to sources.
Earlier on Monday, the Rouse Avenue Court in Delhi sentenced him to Judicial Custody until March 20.

Sisodia was arrested on February 26 in an ongoing investigation of a case related to alleged irregularities in the framing and implementation of the excise policy of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD).

ED last year filed its first chargesheet before a court in the national capital in the Delhi excise policy money laundering case naming liquor businessman Sameer Mahandru as one of the accused.
The agency said it has so far undertaken nearly 200 search operations in this case after filing FIR after taking cognisance of a CBI case which was registered on the recommendation of the Delhi lieutenant governor.
