Will not shift to new house if courts asks me to do so: Kejriwal

June 25, 2014 20:21

Reiterating that he was unaware of the controversy over his new house, AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal today said that he will not shift to his new accommodation till the legal issues are resolved.

"Its a dispute between two brothers. I went to the landlord (Naren Jain) and rented out the house. The brothers will sort out the matter. If the court tells me not to stay in the house, I will look for another residence," Kejriwal told a press conference.

The AAP leader had zeroed in on the house at No.4B Flagstaff Road in North Delhi and was told that the property belonged to Naren Jain. However, Jain's brother, Virendra, has claimed that there is a dispute over the property between him and his siblings and the matter is in the court. He has pointed out that the house cannot be rented out without the court's orders.

Virendra also filed three applications before the Delhi high court today, one of which was to restrain the ex-CM of Delhi from moving into the house.
