Delhi chief minister Kejriwal arrested in liquor graft case

The arrest means the main leaders of the decade-old Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) are in jail, following the arrests last year of two of Kejriwal’s deputies in the same case - which the party has called “dirty politics”.

India’s financial crime agency arrested Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi on Thursday in connection with graft allegations relating to the city’s liquor policy, his party said, a setback for the opposition ahead of elections.
