Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP and former Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chief Swati Maliwal has reportedly claimed that she was assaulted at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence by his close aide Bibhav Kumar. It is reportedly said that Maliwal made a PCR call around 10 am from the CM's residence, calling a visit from the Delhi Police to the house in Civil Lines.
