The Delhi Police have secured five days of custody for Bibhav Kumar, former aide to Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, over the alleged assault on AAP MP Swati Maliwal. The police, represented by additional DCP Anjitha Chepyala, argued that Kumar was uncooperative and evasive. The remand paper, supported by medical evidence, detailed Maliwal's allegations of verbal and physical assault at the CM's residence. It also noted Kumar's recent phone formatting, which is suspected to contain vital evidence. The police expressed concerns that Kumar could tamper with evidence and intimidate witnesses due to his influential role.
