Investigation revealed that Mr Sisodia gave the draft note to the excise commissioner and removed the opinion of the legal expert from draft note, the agency has alleged.
Senior advocate Dayan Krishnan, who is representing Mr Sisodia questioned if inability to answer the CBI's questions can be a ground for remand. "Their case is that I did not confess. That's their case. They expect me to answer the way they want. There cannot be self incrimination.Custody cannot be granted because I didn't self incriminate," he argued.
Aam Aadmi Party workers and supporters, meanwhile, took to the streets in Delhi, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Bhopal, and several other cities to protest against Manish Sisodia's arrest by the CBI.
