On July 19, an FIR was registered against a youth under sections 506 and 509 of IPC at Jamia Nagar police station based on a complaint filed by the woman, a resident of Jasola.
The FIR also states that on July 9, while she had gone to the MLA's house to complain about power cut in the area, at the behest of Khan, a 22-year-old youth allegedly threatened to get her raped and killed.
In a news conference the party played a video, in which the woman is purportedly involved in a conversation with a person in which she is heard saying "that the SHO of the Jamia Nagar Police Station had asked her to add allegations of getting her raped and killed in the FIR."
Khan also claimed that the woman has also given a "false" statement before a magistrate that he (Khan) also tried to crush her under his car.
"The woman is in touch with several BJP leaders and she was also taken to the magistrate by a lawyer affiliated to the party.
The Okhla legislator also said that he was in Meerut from July 9 and 10 while his children were holidaying in Kashmir on the date, the dates on which the woman claims to have come to his residence.
"There is another discrepancy in the complaint. She had first given a complaint to the Delhi Police Commissioner on July 11 saying she had called me (Khan) and I threatened her. In her compliant the woman also states that she has been an AAP worker for the past four years.
Khan said he has written a complaint to DCP (South-east) of the Delhi Police to file an FIR against the SHO and the woman for "framing" him.
AAP's Delhi unit secretary Saurabh Bharadwaj claimed that this is another such case where the Centre has been using the police against his party legislators.
