A Delhi court is likely to pass its order at 4 pm on Wednesday on a complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for non-compliance with summons in the alleged money laundering case over the excise tax policy.

“I will post the matter for orders at 4 pm,” Metropolitan Chief Justice Divya Malhotra said.

The judge stayed the order after the ED said it had concluded its arguments in the case. The ED filed a fresh complaint on February 3 against Kejriwal for not complying with the summons.

Kejriwal on Friday skipped the fifth summons issued to him on Wednesday.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener had earlier written to the ED calling the summonses “illegal and politically motivated”. He claimed their aim was to prevent him from running in the election.
