Senior Aam Aadmi Party leader and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Saturday visited his lawyer Abhishek Manu Singhvi at his home and thanked him wholeheartedly for fighting his legal battle in the Supreme Court and getting him out of jail.
Along with Manish Sisodia, senior Aam Aadmi Party leader and MP Sanjay Singh, Minister Atishi and advocates of the party’s legal cell were also present.
Senior Supreme Court advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi fought Manish Sisodia’s case in the Supreme Court and finally he got bail after 17 months.
On this commendable effort of advocate Singhvi, Manish Sisodia said that a lawyer is like God for any person in jail. “Abhishek Manu Singhvi ji is also God for me. He brought this legal battle to its conclusion and will soon get Arvind Kejriwal out as well,” he said.
Manish Sisodia said that I am grateful to all those lawyers who stood with me and fought this battle for the last 17-18 months. I was in jail, and you were fighting my battle outside. Our lawyers were being pushed from one court to another and standing in the courts, were answering their every conspiracy and trick, he said.
Earlier in the day, Manish Sisodia also thanked senior advocates Dayan Krishnan and Mohit Mathur, who fearlessly exposed the lies of the BJP, the ED and the CBI in the courts.
The BJP-led central government got Delhi’s former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia arrested by filing a fake case by its ED and CBI. Raids were conducted at hundreds of places, including at Manish Sisodia’s house, office, bank, ancestral village, but till date the ED and CBI have not found a single evidence against him.
Even after this, Manish Sisodia was kept in jail for about 17 months by getting him entangled in legal complications. Senior Supreme Court advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi took Manish Sisodia’s case in his hands and presented his side in front of the court with his sound and cogent arguments. In front of his strong arguments, no excuses of the central investigation agencies worked and finally on Friday the Supreme Court granted regular bail to Manish Sisodia.
