New Delhi [India], March 23 (HBTV): A day after a Delhi court sent Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to the custody of the Directorate of Enforcement (ED), senior Aam Admi Party (AAP) leader and minister Atishi alleged that the money trail was found in the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) account and challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Enforcement Directorate to 'arrest' BJP national president JP Nadda.  

Addressing a press conference here, Atishi asserted that, till date, no money trail has been found connected to any AAP leader.  

"In the so-called excise policy scam of Delhi, CBI and ED investigations have been going on for the past two years. In these two years, a question has come up again and again: Where is the money trail? Where did the money go? No proceeds of crime were recovered from any leader, minister or worker of AAP," Atishi said. 

The minister said Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on the basis of one person's (Sharad Chandra Reddy) word.    

"Arvind Kejriwal was arrested in the same case two days back on the basis of the statement of just one person - Sharat Chandra Reddy. He is the owner of Aurobindo Pharma. He was summoned on 9th November 2022 for questioning. He clearly said that he never met or spoke with Arvind Kejriwal and has nothing to do with AAP. As soon as he said that, he was arrested the next day by the ED. After being in jail for several months, he changed his statement. He said that he met Arvind Kejriwal and spoke with him over the excise policy matter. He was granted bail as soon as he said that. But where is the money? Where is the money trail?" she stated.    

Atishi said Sarath Chandra Reddy donated INR 4.5 crore bonds to the BJP adding that no illegal money was recovered during the ED's raid on the Delhi's chief minister’s residence.  

‘He (Sharat Chandra Reddy) gave electoral bonds worth INR 4.5 crore to BJP. And then also gave bonds worth INR 55 crores. Where is the money trail? Money trail money was found in BJP's account. I challenge Prime Minister Narendra and ED, to arrest BJP national president JP Nadda,’ Atishi said.
