Saxena added that an investigation, including forensic examination, is necessary for the electronic devices presented by the complainant because the accusations against the chief minister are connected to the purported financing of a political party with millions of dollars from a terrorist organization that is outlawed in India.
The World Hindu Federation India’s National General Secretary Ashoo Mongia and former Aam Aadmi Party employee Munish Kumar Raizada filed the lawsuit.
The LG’s proposal was “wholeheartedly” appreciated by Raizada, adding that the AAP leader Sanjay Singh used to travel to Canada regularly.
According to the complaint, the pro-Khalistan group made this funding to help in the release of terrorist Devendra Pal Bhullar and to further pro-Khalistan sentiments. Bhullar is a convict in the 1993 Delhi bomb blast case.
