The Delhi High Court is set to hear the excise policy case involving prominent Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders, including Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, and MLA Durgesh Pathak, on July 16. This decision follows the leaders' choice to end their boycott of the proceedings, which they had previously maintained under Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma. The case revolves around a revision petition filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) challenging a February 27 trial court ruling that discharged the accused. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the CBI, underscored the serious nature of the allegations, asserting that the trial court's discharge order could not withstand judicial scrutiny. Additionally, the court is concurrently dealing with contempt proceedings against Kejriwal and others for alleged remarks against Justice Sharma. The court aims to ensure all parties are heard before finalizing the hearing schedule.
