Earlier, a similar sting operation was conducted on two of the three lawyers who allegedly assaulted journalists, JNU students and teachers at Patiala House court, and were later arrested earlier this week.
In the latest sting by a TV channel, the security guard who identifies himself as Amarjeet Kumar could be seen claiming that he was present at the February 9 event on the JNU campus.
The guard, in the sting video, could also be seen saying that around 10-15 outsiders were present in the event, which was held despite being denied permission by JNU authorities.
The other person who had identified himself as Delhi Police head constable Rambir could be seen saying that he was present at the event in plain clothes.
He was also seen saying that the JNUSU President was present in the crowd but he did not raise any slogans.
The head constable, in the sting operation video, could also be seen claiming that the protest against the hanging of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru was organised in the past two years also but nothing of this sort had happened.
Asked why the police did not stop the event, he claimed that there was no police present inside the campus as it needs the permission of the Vice Chancellor. However, he had informed his seniors about the incident.
He also said he had not shot any video of the event fearing an attack.
Both Amarjeet Kumar and Rambir are learnt to have recorded their statements with the investigators.
