The Union home minister said he did not see the decision as a “routine judgment”
In a strong statement after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was granted interim bail to campaign for the Lok Sabha elections, Home Minister Amit Shah has said he does not see the Supreme Court’s decision as a routine judgment and stressed that many in the country believe that “special treatment” was given.
During an interview with news agency ANI on Wednesday, Mr Shah was asked about the AAP chief’s claims that he would not need to go back to jail if enough votes were cast in the party’s favour. The home minister replied in Hindi, “I believe this is clear contempt of the Supreme Court. He is trying to say that if someone emerges victorious, the Supreme Court does not send them to jail even if they are guilty. The judges that granted him bail have to think how their judgment is being used or misused.”
