New Delhi: AAP Rajya Sabha member Swati Maliwal on Thursday claimed in an interview to ANI that Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal was at home when she was being ‘beaten’ by his aide Bibhav Kumar.
The Delhi CM had on Wednesday said that he wasn’t at home when Maliwal was assaulted.
Narrating the incident to ANI, Maliwal said, “I went to meet the CM around 9 am on May 13. The staff asked me to sit in the drawing room and while I was waiting for him, Bibhav barged into the room. I asked him what’s the issue and he started beating me…He slapped me seven to eight times. When I tried to push him, he grabbed my legs and pulled me down on the floor. As I fell on the floor, he started kicking me. I screamed for help but nobody came.”
Maliwal further said it is a matter of investigation whether Bibhav acted on his own or whether he was instructed to do so. “It is a matter of investigation. I am cooperating with Delhi Police. I am not giving any clean chit to anyone,” she said.
The former chairperson of Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) said she did not think about her future when she complained about the incident to police and only knew that when she had been telling women to fight for truth and justice, how couldn’t she?
