Dissident Aam Aadmi Party leader Kumar Vishwas on Thursday told the Delhi high court that his statements against Union minister Arun Jaitley were based on the information received as a party worker from his leader Arvind Kejriwal.

Vishwas, who was present in person in court, told Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw that before making any statement or apology to Jaitley, he wants to know if Kejriwal lied earlier.

He also wanted to know whether Kejriwal had lied before he apologised to Jaitley or whether the reason for his apology amounted to a lie.
