Armed with a number of bail orders and reading out a few of them, AAP spokesperson Ashutosh wondered whether "Modi's police" would now apologise to the legislators.
Police "abused" Okhla MLA Amanatullah Khan's wife during his arrest, he claimed.
He said the bail, and in some cases the acquittal, orders of the MLAs - who included Khan, Somnath Bharti, Surender Singh, Bhavna Gaur, Dinesh Mohaniya, Akhilesh Pati Tripathi and Manoj Kumar - were not "highlighted" enough by the media.
"But the court rapped the police saying that the FIR against Khan had no allegation that it was he who abused and threatened the complainant. Nothing could be recovered from him during his two-day-long police custody," Ashutosh told reporters.
Eleven AAP MLAs were arrested by Delhi Police and their Punjab counterpart in various cases since the party came to power in Delhi for a second time in February last year.
