New Delhi: With a just few days left for Assembly polls in Delhi, a group of volunteers has come out claiming bogus companies made donations to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
The allegations were levelled by the AAP Volunteer Action Manch (AVAM), a group of volunteers who had broken away from Arvind Kejriwal-led AAP in August last year.
The AVAM claimed to unearth 31 such companies that have donated to AAP, adding that four bogus companies have made donations amounting to Rs 50 lakhs each.
It also claimed that one of the companies was registered at a address which was located in a shanty.
An AVAM official said that it was a clear case of money laundering as most of these companies had received money in their account only days before it was transferred to the AAP account.
Meanwhile, BJP leader Shazia Ilmi approved the charges against Kejriwal-led party saying, “I know them... they were affiliated to AAP. Kejriwal was an IRS officer... why didn't he react when donations were made. Four companies donated Rs 2 crore in a single day... He always demands investigation into donations but he didn't intiatew probe into his own transactions.”
However, responding to the allegations, the AAP said that they have nothing to hide and are open to scrutiny by any agency.
