Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal, who was arrested in a defamation case on Wednesday,

will remain in Delhi's Tihar Jail till June 6. His judicial custody was extended today after he refused to sign
a personal bond

In a courtroom that was packed with his supporters, he argued his own case today. Among those present
were his wife Sunita Kejriwal and party leader Kumar Vishwas. When the judge arrived, he reportedly
refused to begin the hearing till the crowd cleared.

The AAP chief was arrested after he refused to post bail in a case filed by BJP leader Nitin Gadkari. He
was summoned by the court on a complaint by Mr Gadkari, who had been named in AAP's list of "India's
most corrupt" in January. He was asked to furnish a bail bond of Rs. 10,000 but he said he would not do so
on principle, as he had not committed any crime.
