Kejriwal defied interim bail conditions imposed by SC, says BJP's Hitesh Jain

New Delhi [India], May 19 (ANI): Senior advocate and BJP leader Hitesh Jain on Sunday said that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal brazenly defied the conditions imposed by the Supreme Court.
Speaking with ANI, Hitesh Jain said, "The Supreme Court has passed an unprecedented order releasing Arvind Kejriwal on interim bail for 20 days, with certain terms and conditions. Arvind Kejriwal is also required to surrender again on June 2. One of the conditions is that he will not speak about his role in the case during any campaign or otherwise. That was a specific condition. In the protest that was led by him for the Aam Aadmi Party, he had all the rights to protest but he brazenly defied the conditions passed by the Supreme Court."
He added, "There is no precedent for releasing a person for campaigning. However, he has not respected the liberty that has been granted. And today, commenting on his role in the case is a brazen defiance of the SC order."
The BJP leader also levelled accusations against Kejriwal, asserting that he disregards the rule of law. "Clearly, he doesn't believe in the rule of law. He believes that he has every right to shamelessly, brazenly defy the institution. Today, he has defied the Supreme Court and he has told the SC that he is not bound by the conditions. It is for the SC to see whether they will allow the rule of law to prevail or the jungle raj of Arvind Kejriwal..."
Earlier in the day, AAP organised a protest march towards the BJP headquarters against the arrest of Kejriwal's PA Bibhav Kumar who has been accused of assaulting Swati Maliwal. (ANI)
