NEW DELHI: Hours after giving statement to Delhi Police in connection with the alleged assault by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal‘s aide, Aam Aadmi Party MP Swati Maliwal said “the last few days have been very difficult” and she hopes “appropriate action will be taken” now after her statement. This is her first public reaction after the alleged assault on her on May 13 at CM Kejriwal’s residence.
In a post on X, Maliwal wrote, “What happened to me was very bad.I have given my statement to the police on the incident that happened to me. I hope that appropriate action will be taken.” She also mentioned that the last few days have been very difficult for her. “The last few days have been very difficult for me. I thank those who prayed for me. Those who tried to do character assassination, said that she was doing it on the instructions of the other party, may God keep them happy too. An important election is going on in the country, Swati Maliwal is not important, the issues of the country are important,” she added.
In a “special request”, the AAP MP asked the BJP not to politicise the incident. “There is a special request to BJP people to not do politics on this incident,” she wrote.
The first public statement of Maliwal on the incident comes hours after a two-member of Delhi Police recorded her statement at her residence earlier in the day. In the statement to the police team, which was at her residence for more than four hours, Maliwal told them about the incident that happened at the chief minister’s residence on Monday. A police official told news agency PTI the police might register an FIR in connection with the matter.
