Kapil Mishra ends hunger strike, to file case against Kejriwal on Tuesday

On Sunday, Mishra accused the AAP of lying to the Election Commission (EC) about donations and laundering money through shell companies.

New Delhi, May 15: Suspended AAP leader Kapil Mishra ended his indefinite hunger strike on the sixth day on Monday evening, and announced that he would approach the CBI and CBDT to file corruption cases against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

"Doctors won't discharge until I start taking liquids. I have to go to CBI and CBDT. Starting on liquids now," Mishra said in a tweet before ending his fast.

"Tomorrow case of hawala, black money, money laundering and operating through shell companies will be filed in CBI and CBDT against Arvind Kejriwalji," he said in another tweet.

Attacking the Chief Minister, the sacked water minister said that the "foundation laid on lies was rattled. And hence those who spread lies were hiding inside their houses".

"The people with black money are unable to understand the request of truth," he said.

Mishra has been on an indefinite hunger strike since May 10, demanding that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief must reveal the source of funding of the foreign trips of five AAP leaders -- Sanjay Singh, Ashish Khetan, Raghav Chadhha, Satyendar Jain and Durgesh Pathak -- in the last two years.

On Sunday, Mishra accused the AAP of lying to the Election Commission (EC) about donations and laundering money through shell companies.

The AAP has dismissed his charges as a "conspiracy" by the BJP and accused the latter party of shooting from his shoulders.
