Senior Advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi appeared for Kejriwal before Special Judge (PC Act) Kaveri Baweja of Rouse Avenue Court and contended that Kejriwal has been receiving insulin for the last 12 years.
“I am undertrial prisoner. I have a right to a dignified life and health. We have had democracy for 75 years but I am seeing such pettiness from an investigating agency for the first time,” Singhvi stated.
He also contested ED’s arguments that Kejriwal was deliberately eating mangoes, sweets and other similar food to spike his sugar level and create a ground for bail.
These statements are only meant for the media, Singhvi stressed.
“I only use sugar free in my tea. How petty, political, and ridiculous ED can be? Their statements are completely false and malicious. Just because you have a lot of influence in the media you are able to publish that I am having aaloo (potato)-puri, even though this meal was sent only once during Navratri.”
