Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia Monday claimed that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which is probing him in the alleged irregularities in the excise policy in the national capital, would be checking his bank locker on Tuesday. He said the agency sleuths were welcome but they would not find anything in the locker.
"Tomorrow, the CBI is coming to check our bank locker. They did not find anything in a 14-hour-long raid at my residence on August 19. They won't find anything in the locker too. The CBI is welcome. My family and I will extend full cooperation in the probe," the deputy chief minister said in a tweet in Hindi.
The AAP leader has been named in the FIR filed by CBI in connection with alleged irregularities in the implementation of the Delhi excise policy. The central agency had also conducted raids at Sisodia's place, along with 30 other locations, on August 19.
