“You may go there (before trail court), Just write an e-mail to the registry. We will see,” Justice Khanna told Singhvi.

The move came hours after Justice Khanna had told singhvi that kejriwal’s petition against his arrest would be heard by a three-judge bench during the day. Kejriwal had moved the Supreme Court late Thursday after the ED arrested him.
He was arrested hours after the Delhi High Court refused to grant protection to the AAP national convenor from any coercive action by the agency. Kejriwal’s name has been mentioned multiple times in the charge sheets filed by the ED.

The agency has alleged that the accused were in touch with Kejriwal to formulate the excise policy that resulted in undue benefits to them in return for which they paid kickbacks to the AAP. (Maxim News)
