The Enforcement Directorate has accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of “using” a part of the ₹100 crore kickbacks allegedly received from the ‘south group’ liquor lobby to meet its expenditure for the Goa Assembly poll campaign in 2022. The accusation has been made in the agency’s supplementary charge sheet filed in the Delhi Excise policy-linked money laundering case. It has arraigned as accused a media publicity company, Chariot Productions Media Pvt. Ltd., and its owner-promoter Rajesh Joshi in the prosecution complaint. A Delhi court took cognizance of this charge sheet on Monday.
There are no allegations whatsoever against me in the said complaints. It appears that in the complaint my name is mentioned as an attendee to some meeting though the basis of making such an allegation is not clear. I vehemently and unequivocally deny commission of any alleged offence in any manner, in relation to the said meeting or otherwise,” he said.
Based on the statement provided, it appears that the individual is denying any allegations against them in regards to a meeting. They state that their name was mentioned as an attendee in a complaint, but they do not understand the basis for the allegation. They are vehemently denying any commission of an offense in relation to the meeting or otherwise. Without further information about the specific complaint and its context, it is difficult to provide a more detailed analysis.
Based on this statement, it appears that Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy had meetings with the Chief Minister of Delhi, Arvind Kejriwal, and that Kejriwal welcomed his entry into the Delhi liquor business. It is unclear what the context or purpose of these meetings were, or if any illegal activities were discussed or alleged.
