Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia arrested by CBI after 8 hours of questioning

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was arrested by the CBI after nearly 8 hours of questioning on Sunday in connection with alleged scam in Excise policy.

The officials of the Anti-Corruption Branch of the CBI grilled the minister on various aspects of the Excise policy, his alleged link with Dinesh Arora and other accused in the FIR, and details of message exchanges from multiple phones among others, they said.

The CBI investigators were not satisfied with the responses provided by Sisodia and alleged that he was not cooperating in the investigation and avoiding clarifications on crucial points sought by them resulting in his arrest, they said.
