A video of a scuffle between a group of people at the Tis Hazari Court mediation center in Delhi is viral with a false claim that it shows the alleged assault on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Member of Parliament Swati Maliwal.
Maliwal in her complaint has alleged that she was attacked by Kejriwal’s aide, Bibhav Kumar on May 13, 2024, inside the CM’s residence. Kumar has denied the allegation and written to the Delhi Police for registering an FIR on his complaint too. The Delhi police arrested Kumar on May 18, 2024, to be produced in Tis Hazari Court according to The Indian Express.
The 49 secondz video is being shared on X with the caption, “Scene from Delhi CM’s official residence Sheesh Mahal @SwatiJaiHind, You should also see how the fight took place in #DelhiCMResidence. This was bound to happen, Swati Maliwal has been beaten up, the beating was done by Kejriwal’s PA, news is coming in that there is heavy kicking going on in the CMO, the reason given is that Swati, Marlona, Sanjay, all want to become CM and Kejriwal wants to make his Rabri the Chief Minister, a lot of fighting is still left.
