The former Team Anna member's reaction came after CBI today raided the office of an officer of Delhi CM's secretary Rajendra Kumar in a corruption case that led the AAP chief to call PM Modi as a psychopath.

Kejriwal, however, claimed that his office was raided which was denied by the CBI as well as Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in Rajya Sabha where the opposition created an uprorar and forced a couple of adjournments.

The CBI said it did not raid Kejriwal's office but that of his secretary. A senior union minister said that Modi had "nothing to do" with the raid.

A CBI officer said that a case has been registered against Rajendra Kumar for alleged abuse of office to favour a particular firm in the last few years in getting tenders from Delhi government departments.
