New Delhi, Dec 1 (PTI) AAP leader Vijay Nair, arrested in connection with alleged irregularities in the Delhi excise policy case, received Rs 100 crore in “kickbacks” from the ‘south group’ controlled by some businessmen and politicians, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has informed a local court.

Leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), some of whom are part of the government, considered the policy as a “device” to allegedly generate illegal funds at the cost of the state exchequer, it told the court on Wednesday.

“As per the investigation carried so far, Vijay Nair, on behalf of leaders of AAP has at least received kickbacks to the tune of Rs 100 crore from a group, called south group (controlled by Sarath Reddy, Ms K Kavitha, Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy) by various persons including Amit Arora,” the ED said, adding Amit Arora “disclosed” this during the recording of his statement.
