Sisodia, accused number one in the CBI FIR, was earlier questioned on October 17, a month before the agency filed its charge sheet on November 25 last year. The CBI had not named Sisodia in the charge sheet as the central probe agency kept the probe open against him and other suspects and accused, officials said.
Ahead of appearing before the CBI, Sisodia said: “I want to tell Kejriwal ji, aap chaalu rakhiye….logon ke liye aise hi ladte rahiye.. Modi ji, who is not even scared of Rahul Gandhi, is scared of only one party that is AAP! They will put me in jail…. but we are not afraid, we will fight. Kejriwal is the only future of this country.” “I can go to jail a number of times and I am not afraid. When I left my job as a journalist, my wife supported me and even today, my family is standing by my side. My workers will take care of my family if I get arrested,” he added.
