A Delhi court on Thursday summoned Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party supremo Arvind Kejriwal after the Enforcement Directorate filed a fresh complaint seeking his prosecution for skipping multiple summons issued to him in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy.

The court of Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Divya Malhotra listed the matter for hearing on Thursday.

Earlier, the probe agency had moved a local court seeking Kejriwal's prosecution for not attending the first three summons issued to him in the money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy.

Kejriwal's name has been mentioned multiple times in charge sheets filed by the Enforcement Directorate in the excise policy case.

So far, the probe agency has arrested AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh, party communications in-charge Vijay Nair and some liquor businessmen in this case.
