The Delhi High Court has provided a final opportunity for Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal (former Chief Minister of Delhi), Manish Sisodia (former Deputy Chief Minister), and Durgesh Pathak, to submit their responses to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)'s appeal against their discharge in the excise policy case. The court, led by Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma, has set a deadline for the responses by Saturday, with hearings scheduled to commence on Monday. Despite this, Kejriwal and his colleagues have indicated their intention to boycott the proceedings, citing concerns over the judge's impartiality. The trial court had previously discharged 23 individuals, asserting that the CBI failed to establish a prima facie case. The CBI has since contested this decision, prompting the current appeal. The court has also addressed other related applications, including one from Sarvesh Mishra, an alleged associate of AAP parliamentarian Sanjay Singh, regarding previous court orders. The hearings were postponed due to the absence of trial court records, with the next session planned for Monday.
