"Height of dictatorship": Sanjay Raut after ED raids on AAP MP Sanjay Singh

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 4 (ANI): As the Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted searches at the residence of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Sanjay Singh, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut on Wednesday said that this is the height of dictatorship.
Sanjay Raut said that Singh asked questions so he has been expelled from Parliament.
"Sanjay Singh is an MP and has been a fearless journalist. He asks questions and because of asking questions, he has been expelled from the Parliament. Raids are being conducted in his house," Raut said while speaking to ANI
He further said, "Raids are conducted on us, it happens in Maharashtra, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand but why are there no raids in Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Assam and others where they (BJP) are in power? If you want information, we will give you information about where the scams are taking place. The way the raids are going on at Sanjay Singh's house, I feel that this is the height of dictatorship."
The ED this morning arrived at Sanjay Singh's Delhi residence and began its searches in connection with the Delhi excise policy case.
Raut further alleged that ED and CBI have become Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) weapons.
"See, be it ED or CBI, it has become the weapon of BJP and by using that weapon, BJP is doing its politics. Preparing to use weapons in 2024. Whoever talks and writes against BJP government will go to jail," he added.
Raut said, "Yesterday the Supreme Court said that if you arrest someone then they should give you the reason in writing as to why you are being arrested. ED is not doing this."
Launching a scathing attack against the BJP-led Maharashtra government, Raut alleged that the BJP has made the state "politically sick".
"The entire state has been destroyed. Maharashtra has become a sick state, BJP has made Maharashtra politically sick and is busy with it. A very successful state has been turned into a sick and slave state," Raut added. (ANI)
