Kejriwal filed an application
The important thing is that Arvind Kejriwal had challenged the CBI's arrest by filing a petition in the Delhi High Court on July 1 (Monday). The CBI had arrested CM Kejriwal on June 26.
What petition did Kejriwal file?
Kejriwal has also challenged the special court's order of June 26. He said that he has been sent on 3-day CBI remand. CBI made false grounds for the arrest and no arguments were given. The petition filed on behalf of Kejriwal states that the arrest was made on the basis of already available material, which is illegal and not permitted by law.

In response to this, Singhvi said that no, he did not do so. After this, the High Court also sent a notice to the CBI and asked it to file a reply in this case. Now the hearing of this case will be held on July 17.
