Amanatullah Khan's bail in Delhi Waqf matter exposes Modi's 'false case', says AAP
New Delhi (PTI): AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan's bail in the Delhi Waqf matter has exposed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "false case", senior party leader Sanjay Singh said on Thursday.
A Delhi court on Thursday ordered Khan's release in a money-laundering case related to alleged irregularities in the Delhi Waqf Board while refusing to take cognisance of a charge sheet filed against him.
"Bail to Amanat. Once again, Modi's false case has been exposed. Modi ji tried all his tricks but could not eliminate Arvind Kejriwal and AAP," the party's Rajya Sabha MP Singh said in Hindi on X.
Echoing his colleague, Delhi Environment Minister Gopal Rai said this was bound to happen.
"All AAP leaders are out now. The truth cannot be defeated and we are going to contest the Delhi elections with full strength," he said.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on September 2 arrested Khan as part of a money-laundering investigation against him and some others linked to him.
He was taken into custody under provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act after the central agency conducted a search of his residence in Delhi's Okhla area.
The money-laundering case against the 50-year-old legislator stems from two FIRs -- one by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with the "irregularities" in the Waqf Board and a disproportionate assets case registered by the Delhi Anti Corruption Branch.
The ED on October 29 filed a 110-page first supplementary prosecution complaint (ED's equivalent of a charge sheet), claiming Khan laundered money that was allegedly generated through corruption in the Delhi Waqf Board.

Nora Fatehi apologises before NCW over 'Sarke Chunar' row, vows support for orphan girls
New Delhi (PTI): Actor Nora Fatehi on Thursday appeared before the National Commission for Women in connection with a controversy surrounding the song 'Sarke Chunar' and apologised, saying there was "no intention to offend anybody."
Speaking to reporters after the hearing, Fatehi said she had been put in a situation unintentionally but acknowledged her responsibility as an artist.
"It was just a situation that I was put in, and there was no intention to offend anybody. But of course, I have to be responsible as an artiste. I definitely apologise, we have done everything in writing. They have been so kind and helpful," she said.
The actor also said she has decided to sponsor the education of a few orphan girls.
"It's really important for us to give back to society. So, I decided that we should sponsor a few orphan girls, their education, so that is the goal after this matter," she said.
Earlier, Fatehi distanced herself from the Hindi version of the song, saying she had shot the Kannada version and that her permission was not taken for its use in Hindi.
The Hindi version of the song, released on March 15 on YouTube, triggered outrage among a section of the public over its allegedly explicit lyrics.
Following the backlash, the makers removed the Hindi version from YouTube, though it continued to circulate across platforms. The lyricist, singer and director have also issued apologies.
'KD The Devil' is a Kannada film, dubbed in four languages, including Hindi.
