A Delhi Court on Wednesday ordered Arvind Kejriwal to be taken into custody for refusing to furnish a bail bond in a defamation complaint filed by BJP leader Nitin Gadkari.

He was taken to Tihar jail amid tight security.

After Kejriwal refused to furnish the bond, the court asked if the AAP leader was looking for "some exceptional treatment".

Kejriwal, who appeared before court after being summoned, told Metropolitan Magistrate Gomati Manocha that he was ready to give an undertaking that he would appear before court but refused to furnish the bond to secure bail.

During the hearing, the magistrate observed, "I completely agree but why (Kejriwal) will he not furnish bail bond? What is the problem? There is a procedure and why should we follow different procedure in this case?"

"I agree he will appear in court but procedure is that a person has to file the bail bond. Are you looking for some exception treatment?"

Kejriwal, who also argued in the court, told the judge he had not committed any heinous crime and added he was not looking for any exceptional treatment. "This is my principle that when I have not done anything wrong, I will not seek bail. I am ready to go to jail," he said.
