On Tuesday, a local court will likely get the chargesheet that the Delhi Police filed in the assault case against Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal. According to media reports, the charges against Bibhav Kumar, an aide to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, would be listed by the Delhi Police.
According to sources, the police are almost done with their investigation and are prepared to present Bibhav Kumar with a charge sheet in a Tis Hazari court. In connection with the case, the police have also produced a 1,000-page charge sheet. Security personnel were present at Kejriwal’s home at the time of the incident.
The two cell phones of the accused, Bibhav Kumar, have been taken by the police, along with the DVR that was seized from Arvind Kejriwal’s residence. While in police detention, Kumar was again brought to Mumbai in order to retrieve the purportedly erased data from his cell phones.
Swati Maliwal Statement On Assault
On May 13, Swati Maliwal said that she was assaulted by Kumar when she went to meet with Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at his residence. May 16 was the day she filed a FIR against Kumar, and on May 18, the Delhi Police took him into custody.
Kumar was arrested by the Delhi Police at the Civil Lines Police Station on the basis of a complaint filed by the Rajya Sabha MP under the following sections: 308 (attempt to commit culpable homicide), 341 (wrongful restraint), 345B (assault or use of criminal force against a woman with the intent to disrobe her), 506 (criminal intimidation), and 509 (insult caused to the modesty of a woman by the use of any words, gestures, or object intending to do the same).
The police’s confession to the court that there was an attempt to obstruct the vital evidence was also recorded, because only a small portion of the CM residence’s CCTV footage was provided to investigators.

The Delhi High Court had already refused Kumar’s request for bail, stating that the accused has “considerable influence” over the case. “It cannot be ruled out that witnesses may be influenced or evidence tampered with in case the petitioner is released on bail,” the judge stated during the hearing.
