On Wednesday, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Kejriwal approached the Supreme Court, challenging the High Court's order passed on Tuesday, which dismissed his plea for release from jail and rejected his argument of political vendetta amid the looming Lok Sabha elections. The High Court had said that Kejriwal's absence from nine ED summons over six months undermined any claims of special privilege as Chief Minister, suggesting his arrest was an inevitable consequence of his non-cooperation.
