Gujarat ATS on Saturday detained the activist Teesta Setalvad from her house in connection with a case related to her NGO, reports said. Setalvad was a co-petitioner in the dismissed case by the Supreme Court that challenged clean chit to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots.

The development took place after Union Home Minister Amit Shah slammed the NGO run by Teesta Setalvad for giving out baseless information about the Gujarat riots.

In its order, the Apex Court on Friday said antecedents of Teesta Setalvad need to be reckoned with also because she has been vindictively persecuting the dispute for her ulterior motives by exploiting the emotions of Zakia Jafri, the wife of wife of Congress leader Ehsan Jafri who was killed in the 2002 Gujarat riots.

On other hand, former IPS officer RB Sreekumar has been arrested by the Ahmedabad crime branch for circulating false information about the Gujarat riots. Gujarat Police registered a case against former IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, former IPS officer RB Sreekumar, and Teesta Setalvad.

An FIR has been filed against Setalvad under Sections 468, 471, 194, 211, 218, and 120B of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The activist has been charged with forgery under sections 468 and 471 of the IPC.

During the anti-Muslim violence that took place in 2002, Narendra Modi was the chief minister of Gujarat and the Supreme Court had ruled out that there was not enough evidence to charge him for the violence that erupted in the state.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Sanjay Singh today read a message of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during a press confrence. The AAP leader said that  Kejriwal  has sent a message from Tihar Jail in which he said that he is not a terrorist.

Sanjay Singh said, Tihar jail conveyed a message from Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, who served like a son and a brother for the country and the people of Delhi. The Aap MP further read CM’s message, which says, “My name is Arvind Kejriwal and I am not a terrorist.”

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was compelled to meet the three-time elected chief minister of Delhi through a glass. This clearly shows that the prime minister dislikes Arvind Kejriwal,” the AAP MP claimed.

Arvind Kejriwal is among the people arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the Delhi excise policy-linked money laundering case. Arvind Kejriwal is being held under judicial custody at the Tihar jail at the moment.

A Delhi court extended Arvind Kejriwal’s judicial custody on Monday until April 23. The Delhi High Court’s decision to reject the AAP national convenor’s appeal against his ED arrest and subsequent remand in the excise policy issue was challenged by the convenor in an earlier Supreme Court application.

Sanjay Singh also claimed during the press conference that efforts are made to demoralize every day. He also said, Arvind Kejriwal is this person, he is not formed of the same clay. The more you attempt to break him, the more resilient he will become. CM Bhagwant Mann broke down in tears yesterday at the meeting. They are all affected by this, but the BJP and PM Modi should be ashamed of themselves, the AAP MP claimed.

Bhagwant Mann met Arvind Kejriwal in Tihar jail on Monday, where he claimed he was being treated like a terrorist. Meanwhile, the AAP announced that its Delhi government would begin operating from jail in a proper format, with the chief minister scheduled to meet with two ministers starting next week.
