The agency had sought seven-day custody of the AAP chief, but the court said he has to be produced before the court on April 1 at 11 am
The ED had produced him before Rouse Avenue court Special Judge Kaveri Baweja as his current custody was ending on Thursday
The ED said in its fresh remand plea that during his custodial interrogation, his statements were recorded on five days and that he was "giving evasive replies"
It said the statements of three other persons have also been recorded during the remand
Meanwhile, Arvind Kejriwal's wife Sunita Kejriwal on Thursday claimed he is not keeping well and is being "harassed a lot"
Kejriwal has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy
Sunita Kejriwal, who had come for her husband's court hearing, told reporters, "He has not been keeping well"
She said, "His (Arvind Kejriwal) sugar levels are fluctuating. He is being harassed a lot. This tyranny won't last and people will give a reply"
