The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) raided Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's Principal Secretary Rajender Kumar's office today morning. Kejriwal said the raid was actually carried out on his office, but the top investigating agency rejected his claims and said it carried out searches on Kumar's office and other 14 locations in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh on a corruption complaint made against him in 2002.

A furious Kejriwal gave Delhi's Tuesday drama a new twist in the evening claiming that CBI raided his office to locate files related to corruption in DDCA. The files, he said, names Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. Kejriwal said he was about to order an enquiry into the issue.

"Which file was CBI looking for in my office? DDCA files in which Arun Jaitley is in dock. I was about to order a commission of enquiry," Kejriwal tweeted moments later he addressed the media in Delhi.

"Rajender to sirf bahaana hai, Kejriwal nishaana hai (Rajender is just an excuse, real target is Kejriwal)," the Delhi CM said told reporters.

However, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has rubbished Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's allegations that there were financial irregularities when he was the president of the Delhi and District Cricket Association or DDCA for 13 years till December, 2013. He said, "And I don't think I need to respond to rubbish: Arun Jaitley on Delhi CM's allegations against him."

He added, "His morning statement appeared to be prima facie incorrect, but evening one seems to be absolute rubbish."

Lawyer HS Phoolka who is representing Kumar said, "Nothing incriminating was seized from his (Rajendra Kumar) house."



Rajender Kumar was interrogated for over 2 hours and allows him to return to home.
