Dear Chitleen Sethi, The title is misleading! Was Majithia arrested because he is a “foe” of AAP or because he gathered unaccounted assets when he was a minister and it is alleged that it was mostly drug money? Drugs is poison for human populace, worse than even terrorism. So if Majithia is accused of promoting drugs when he was in power and if there are enough proofs, or if five to ten addicts directly accuse him, then Majithia must be given strongest possible punishment. he should be given extra time to say “will make you scream” against AAP CM Mann. A promoter of drugs deserves no mercy.
