In a letter to MHA written on November 7, the Chief Minister also said that the Delhi Police was not cooperating with his government on several issues. He has mentioned 10-point complaints against the city police.
The Ministry has, in a November 9 letter, sought reply from Delhi Police Commissioner B S Bassi on issues raised by Kejriwal at the earliest. Sources said that police is preparing reply and it will soon be sent to MHA.
"Delhi Police has been trying to hound AAP MLAs by digging up old cases and creating new ones against them. Manoj Kumar, AAP MLA, Kondli was arrested on a matter which was several years old and there was no need for custodian investigation or interrogation of the MLA in this case.
"Similarly, Commando Surender AAP MLA, Delhi Cantonment was arrested on charges under SC ST Act when he intervened in a demolition being carried out by the NDMC staff. Even the judge hearing the bail matter of the case observed that it appeared politically motivated. Party MLA Shri Journail Singh was also hounded by Delhi Police in similar fashion," Kejriwal alleged in his letter.
