Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia will be questioned on Friday in connection with an alleged assault on Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash by two AAP MLAs in the presence of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, police said on Thursday.
Last Friday, Kejriwal was questioned at his residence by Delhi Police personnel for about three hours on the alleged assault.
On February 20, the Chief Secretary alleged that he was assaulted by two Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs in the presence of Kejriwal at the Chief Minister's residence.
AAP MLAs Amanatullah Khan and Prakash Jarwal were arrested over the assault and later released on bail.
On Thursday, Deputy Commissioner of Police Harendra Kumar said the police would question Sisodia at the latter's residence on Friday evening.
According to him, the questioning would be video-recorded as done during the questioning of Kejriwal.
