ED says CM of Delhi is the mastermind of an excise “scam,” and AAP is a “major beneficiary of proceeds of crime.”
In its seventh supplementary chargesheet, the Enforcement Directorate characterized Aam Aadmi Party as the “major beneficiary of proceeds of crime” and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as the “kingpin and key conspirator” in the case pertaining to financial irregularities purported in the now-canceled excise policy of 2021–2022.
On Tuesday, the court of special judge Kaveri Baweja took cognizance of the 208-page chargesheet that named Kejriwal and AAP as the accused.

ED said in the chargesheet that the CM “knowingly involved in the use of proceeds of crime generated in the Goa election campaign of AAP” in 2022 and was “intrinsically and actually involved in the entire conspiracy” in the alleged scam.
The chargesheet deals with Rs 100 crore of the Rs 1,100 crore alleged to be involved overall.
The chargesheet claims that that Kejriwal demanded Rs 100 crore kickbacks from the members of the South Group for the liquor sale contract, of which Rs 45 crore was spent on the Goa elections.
