Delhi CM met Sisodia’s family at AB 17 Mathura Road, the premises which is now officially allocated to Delhi minister Atishi. The same premises were earlier allotted to Sisodia. This comes a day after Sisodia, on a special permission from the court, visited his ailing wife.

After the brief meet, Kejriwal left for Sanjay Singh’s house who has also been arrested in connection with the Delhi Excise policy case.

Visuals from CM’s meet with Sanjay Singh family showed, his wife, Sunita Kejriwal, also accompanied him. Singh’s mother and wife can be seen interacting with Kejriwal. In another video, visuals show Kejriwal meet Manish Sisodia’s wife.

During the brief meeting with his wife, the AAP leader lighted diyas on 'Choti Diwali'.

Sharing a photo of Sisodia hugging his wife as he was leaving his house to return to jail, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, "This picture is very painful."

"Is it right to do such injustice to a person who gave hope to the poor children of the country?" Kejriwal wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Sisodia was arrested by the CBI on February 26 and by the ED on March 9 in the liquor case. The Supreme Court recently rejected Sisodia's bail petition, following earlier rejections by the High Court and trial court.

AAP’s Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh is also under judicial custody in the Delhi Excise policy money laundering case until November 24.
