The Enforcement Directorate has issued fresh summons to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for questioning on March 21 in the excise policy-inked money laundering case, official sources said Sunday.

The 55-year-old national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has been asked to depose at the central agency's office in central Delhi.

The ninth summons has been issued so that Kejriwal's statement can be recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), according to sources.

The CM has repeatedly refused to appear in response to these summons, calling them illegal.

A Delhi court on Saturday granted bail to Kejriwal on two complaints filed by the agency against him for skipping six of the previous eight summons in this case.

The agency arrested BRS leader K Kavitha in this case two days back.
