crazywal.. http://indianexpress.com/article/explained/now-playing-in-co urts-trials-and-tribulations-of-arvind-kejriwal-defamation-c ases-5103777/ After his March 15 apology to former Punjab Minister Bikram Singh Majithia, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal has written similar letters to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, and Congress leader Kapil Sibal’s lawyer son Amit Sibal, expressing regret for his “unfounded allegations” against them. Gadkari had filed a criminal defamation suit after Kejriwal named him in a list of “India’s most corrupt” on January 31, 2014. Earlier, on May 15, 2013, Kejriwal had alleged a conflict of interest in Amit Sibal appearing in court for a telecom firm while Kapil Sibal was Communications Minister, provoking Amit Sibal to take the Delhi Chief Minister and his deputy Manish Sisodia to court. Both criminal defamation cases were disposed of on Monday after Gadkari and Sibal accepted Kejriwal’s apology. The apology to Majithia had triggered angry responses from the AAP’s Punjab unit, with some leaders threatening to split the party. That crisis was averted after, the party’s Delhi unit says, Kejriwal and Sisodia explained to the Punjab leaders the rationale for the apology. |
