Punjab Govt deliberately not arresting Bikram Majithia: AAP

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has questioned the Congress government for not arresting Akali leader Bikram Singh Majithia in a drug case.

FIR just a ploy

Where can Majithia take refuge that even the STF and SIT fail to track him? It would not be possible without the govt’s protection. The FIR against him is just a ploy by the Congress government to gain political mileage by fooling people. — Harpal Singh Cheema, Leader of opposition

AAP said Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and PCC president Navjot Singh Sidhu were promoting the FIR against Majithia as if they had won the Trojan war, but “the Akali leader is yet to be arrested”.“Channi and Sidhu should clarify whether their action in the drug case was limited to just an FIR and few statements,” it asked.

Leader of the Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema said: “Where can Majithia take refuge that even the STF and SIT fail to track him. It would not be possible without the government’s protection.” He further said we had been saying from day one that the FIR against Majithia was just a ploy by the Congress government to gain political mileage by fooling the people.He further doubted that the new Advocate General (AG) was same as the previous AGs who took no actions against such politicians, and it seemed they’re waiting for Majithia to get bail through his anticipatory bail plea.
