The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has approached the Delhi High Court (HC) challenging the order of the Rouse Avenue Court discharging all the 23 accused, including Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, in the 2022 Delhi Excise policy case, news agency IANS reported.

The central agency has filed a criminal revision petition assailing the trial court’s detailed order, which declined to frame charges in the corruption matter and held that the prosecution had failed to make out even a prima facie case for trial.
