In the latest, the Enforcement Directorate is questioning Bibhav Kumar, the personal assistant (PA) to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
The central agency has called Kejriwal the kingpin of the alleged scam, and notably arrested him on March 21.
The ED has also sent summons to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Durgesh Pathak, asking him to appear on Monday itself.
The summons to Pathak comes days after Delhi minister Atishi claimed that the agency will arrest four other party leaders in connection with the scam: Atishi herself, her ministerial colleague Saurabh Bharadwaj, Pathak, and Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha, who is in the United Kingdom for an eye treatment.
People familiar with the development said that Kumar, the chief minister’s PA, is being questioned as the Enforcement Directorate needs some clarifications about some documents in its investigation.
According to media sources, the former’s name appeared in some statements related to cash payments in the February 2022 Goa assembly elections.
