New Delhi/IBNS: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal visited the family of AAP leader Sanjay Singh who was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case linked to the Delhi liquor policy scam probe.

After meeting the family, the Aam Aadmi Party supremo said, "If we are dishonest, all our problems will be solved."

In a dig at the Centre which has been accused of misusing central agencies by the Opposition, Kejriwal said: "The path of honesty is difficult. If we become dishonest then all the problems will end. All of them (BJP leaders) are corrupt from head to toe, they have no counter to our honesty."

Sanjay Singh is the third AAP leader to be arrested by a central agency and the second high-profile leader to be arrested in the liquor policy case after Manish Sisodia.

Another AAP leader and a former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain was arrested in May last year in a money laundering case.

The ED officials arrested Singh hours after his residence was raided in connection with the Delhi excise policy case.

The probe agency alleged that Singh, who was arrested under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, played a key role in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped policy which benefited certain liquor manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers, reported Hindustan Times.

The ED and the CBI have alleged the Delhi government's excise policy for 2021-22 allowed cartelisation and favoured certain dealers who paid bribes for licences. The AAP has strongly refuted the charge.

The liquor policy was scrapped Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena recommended a CBI probe into alleged corruption.
