You said re was no Sharaab Ghotala but top court has deferred from your views, you said re was no money trail but SC has said that re is Rs 338 crore money trail. You said Manish Sisodia is kattar immandaar but SC, HC even Lower courts have denied him bail. After evidence was placed in front of him, se courts denied bail to Sanjay Singh, Vijay Nair and all of m stated that highest levels of Delhi government were collaborating and conniving in taking part in this entire ghotala. Are all courts wrong? Are all courts vindictive? Are all courts not able to see that you are kattar Immandar and today you must answer that new Liquor policy was me without your knowledge.”
