On Monday AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal alleged of being beaten up inside Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence. Delhi Police has confirmed a PCR call from inside the Chief Minister’s residence. The former Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chief reportedly levelled allegations against Bibhav Kumar, an aide to CM Kejriwal. She accused him of misbehaving with her.
Maliwal made a call to the PCR which led to the police coming to the residence of the Delhi CM. Reportedly there were two PCR calls to the Delhi Police, however, there is no official confirmation yet. According to the media reports, the first call was made at 9:15 am in which she said she was assaulted by Kumar and another person.
However, on the second call at 9:30 am, Maliwal mentioned that just Kumar had assaulted her. The former DCW chief is now on her way to officially file a complaint at the city’s Civil Lines police station. Maliwal left for police station. However, when cops advised the Delhi MP to get an medico legal check-up (MLC), she refused and said she will come back later.
The incident happened just a day after CM Kejriwal was released on bail in the Delhi liquor police scam case. On interim bail to Delhi CM Kejriwal, AAP MP Maliwal said, ‘On behalf of the people of the country, I wholeheartedly thank the Supreme Court. Arvind Kejriwal ji did amazing work in Delhi and Punjab. Today when he has been released from jail, there is wave of happiness and hope in the entire country which will definitely translate into votes. We will win with a huge margin’.
Senior BJP leader Kapil Mishra expressed shock and raised many questions over the matter. Mishra said, ‘Why did Swati have to call the police to Kejriwal’s house this morning ? Did Kejriwal’s PA Bibhav beat up Swati Maliwal ? Will the Chief Minister’s office give any clarification?’.
He added, ‘May God grant that the news of the beating of a female Rajya Sabha MP in the Chief Minister’s house is false’.
