ED Alleges AAP Used Bribe Money for Elections
The Enforcement Directorate has alleged that leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party received funds from the Jal Board scam and used it for election purposes, following raids on 12 locations connected to the leaders. AAP has denied the allegations, stating that no evidence has been recovered from the leaders. This is the second case in which central agencies have accused AAP of using kickbacks for elections. The ED has seized objectionable documents and digital evidence, along with goods worth Rs 1.97 crore and foreign currency worth Rs 4 lakh. The agency has arrested the former Delhi Jal Board Chief Engineer and a contractor in connection with the case. AAP has condemned any wrongdoing by DJB officials or contractors, and accused the ED of defaming the party without evidence.
