Sacked Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra recorded his statement with the Lokayukta against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Health Minister Satyendar Jain here on Thursday.

"I have given statement on seven serious issues of corruption by Arvind Kejriwal and his associates before Hon'ble Lokayukta," Mishra said in a tweet.

In a series of tweets the suspended Aam Aadmi Party explained that his statement was on cash transactions, the Bansal family case, foreign trips and "anti-Indian activities", water tanker scam, hawala funds from fake companies, and Satyendar Jain's benami properties and black money among other things.

"The first issue raised by me is with regard to the exchange of Rs two crore in cash which was given by Satyendar Jain to Arvind Kejriwal in my presence," the statement reads.

 

Mishra has also urged the Lokayukta to obtain details of foreign trips made by AAP ministers at least for the last three years.

"I have doubt that hawala money has been used for these trips and illegal transaction of money has taken place during these trips," Mishra said in his statement.

On May 6, Mishra was sacked as a minister citing poor performance by the AAP.

A day later, Mishra made allegations of corruption against Kejriwal and Jain.

On May 8, he was suspended from the party and Mishra has been protesting and levelling allegations against Kejriwal for the past two weeks.
