Excise case: Kejriwal, others move recusal application in HC; ex-Delhi CM to argue in person

Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, along with other former accused, on Sunday moved a recusal application before Justice Swarn Kanta Sharma in Delhi high court in the alleged liquor scam.According to Aam Aadmi Party, Kejriwal will appear and argue his person on Monday.This comes days after the high court gave final opportunity to Kejriwal and others to file their stand on a plea by the Enforcement Directorate to expunge “unwarranted” remarks made against it by the trial court while discharging them in the liquor policy case.On March 11, led by Kejriwal appealed to Chief Justice Upadhyaya asking that the case be assigned to another “impartial” judge. In the representation, Kejriwal claimed he has a “grave, bona fide, and reasonable apprehension” that the hearing in the matter would not be impartial and neutral.He has also challenged Justice Sharma’s order of March 9, in which she put on hold a trial court direction to investigate the CBI officer who investigated the excise policy case.
