He is already in judicial custody in connection with an ED money laundering case related to the same case.

A Delhi court later sent Kejriwal to three-day custody of the Central Bureau of Investigation(CBI) after the hearing of arguments on the probe agency's application during which he said he is innocent.

The chief minister, who also addressed the court in person, denied having given any statement putting the "entire blame" for the liquor policy scam on his close aide and former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, who is also an accused in the scam. He claimed that the CBI is sensationalising the issue.

The CBI on its part accused Kejriwal of making “unnecessary allegation of malice".
