NEW DELHI: AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal on Sunday lashed out at her party colleagues, saying they once fought for justice for Nirbhaya but now are supporting the person accused of assaulting her, adding that if AAP leader and former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, who is in jail in connection with the Delhi excise police case, had been here, “maybe things wouldn’t have been so bad for me!”
The Rajya Sabha MP has accused Arvind Kejriwal’s aide, Bibhav Kumar, of assaulting her on May 13 when she visited the chief minister’s residence.The Aam Aadmi Party has denied Maliwal’s allegations, claiming that she is acting under the influence of the BJP to frame Arvind Kejriwal in a false case.
In a post on X formerly known as Twitter, Maliwal said that AAP had previously led protests following Nirbhaya’s rape, and now the party is protesting the arrest of an individual accused of assaulting a woman.

” There was a time when we all came out on the streets to get justice for Nirbhaya. Today, 12 years later, we have come out on the streets to save the accused (Bibhav Kumar) who made the CCTV footage disappear and formatted the phone? I wish they had used this much force for Manish Sisodia ji. Had he been here, maybe things wouldn’t have been so bad for me!” she wrote in her post.
Earlier, Maliwal had alleged that Bibhav deleted the CCTV footage from the AAP supremo’s house that would substantiate her claim of being assaulted.
“First Bibhav beat me brutally. He slapped and kicked me. When I freed myself and called 112, he went outside, called security and started making a video. I was screaming and telling the security that Bibhav had beaten me brutally. That entire long part of the video was edited. Only 50 seconds were released when I was fed up with explaining to the security guys. Now they formatted the phone and deleted the entire video? CCTV footage is also missing! Even conspiracy has its limits,” she said.
