Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday sought time from Lieutenant-Governor Anil Baijal to have a meeting over the alleged assault case of Delhi Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash.

The Delhi Police arrived at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence today to collect all evidence; including CCTV footage, relating to the alleged assault of Anshu Prakash that took place on February 19.

The Delhi Police told a Delhi court on Thursday that Chief Minister Kejriwal's advisor V K Jain had confirmed that he saw AAP MLAs surrounding the Chief Secretary and assaulting him.

The administrator said that "none of the persons in the room made an effort to save" his life.

Prakash also accused Okhla MLA Amanatullah Khan and another MLA, who he did not know by name but could identify, of hitting several blows with fists on his head and temple, without any provocation from his side.
