Sanjay Singh Arrest Live Updates: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh has been arrested for the 15th time in connection with a money laundering case linked to the Delhi liquor policy investigation. The Enforcement Directorate conducted searches at his Delhi residence early on Wednesday morning. This marks the third significant arrest within the party, following the arrest of former Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain last year on money laundering charges and the arrest of Manish Sisodia, then Deputy Chief Minister, in February this year in an alleged liquor policy scam.

The raids on Singh's residence followed allegations made by businessman Dinesh Arora, an accused in the case turned approver, implicating the AAP leader and claiming an introduction to Sisodia, the former excise minister. AAP supporters gathered at Singh's house, protesting against the BJP and perceived agency misuse, prompting additional police presence to prevent escalation.
