Sisodia Confessed Of Destroying Two Mobile Phones In The Delhi Liquor Scam

Delhi/Hyderabad, May 18 (Maxim News): Former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia has reportedly confessed to destroying two mobile phones which were sought by the Central Bureau of investigation (CBI) in connection with the Delhi Liquor scam case.

On July 22, 2022, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) directed the CBI to initiate a case in the excise scam. Sources claim that from that day onwards Sisodia started using a new mobile phone.

While probing the matter, the CBI learnt that Sisodia had been using three different mobile phones between January 1, 2020 and August 19, 2022. On august 19, 2022 the probe agency conducted a search operation and seized one phone from Sisodia’s possession.

The source stated that a Section 91 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.PC) notice was also served to Sisodia regarding the two mobile phones and in response, he admitted to the same fact.

This wilful disposal of handsets containing incriminating evidence related to the policy is another incriminating circumstance against Sisodia, the source said, quoting the charge sheet. Sisodia is currently in custody and his several bail pleas have been dismissed by the court. (Maxim News)
