“Shameful”: Shehzad Poonawalla asks Kejriwal to break silence on Swati Maliwal’s case

BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla on Thursday launched a scathing attack against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over the alleged assault of Swati Maliwal and said that this is “shameful”, adding that the AAP chief must break his “silence” over the issue.
“It is been ten days now that Swati Maliwal who is Rajya Sabha MP from AAP has been beaten up by Kejriwal’s personal secretary Bibhav Kumar at CM residence on his instructions. Sanjay Singh has confirmed the same. Why is Arvind Kejriwal silent on the matter? Does it mean that Kejriwal ordered to beat Swati Maliwal? Is it true that Bibhav Kumar has secrets of Kejriwal?” said Shehzad Poonawalla.
Poonawalla further said that Sanjay Singh confirmed the assault of Swati Maliwal. “Why was a U-turn taken on that? Bibhav was arrested at the scene of the crime. He has been taken on a 5-day remand. CCTV footage was damaged. Was Arvind Kejriwal doing evidence tampering? The party which originated from the protest against Nirbhaya’s assault is today standing with Bibhav Kumar,” he added.
“There is corruption behind Kejriwal’s silence. He needs to break the silence and speak the truth. It is shameful,” said Poonawalla.
Notably, in an exclusive interview with ANI, Swati Maliwal asserted that Bibhav Kumar is a very “influential and powerful man” in the AAP.
Calling Bibhav Kumar “raazdaar” (the one who keeps secret) of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Swati Maliwal alleged that the personal aide of Delhi CM Bibhav Kumar is not an “ordinary personal assistant” adding that the entire party is “afraid” of him.
“I have known Bibhav Kumar since 2006. Arvind Kejriwal ‘ke sabse bade raazdaar, sabse karibi aadmi iss waqt Bibhav Kumar hain.’ He is not an ordinary PA. If you see his house, his house is so luxurious, he has been given such a house, even no minister has got such a house in Delhi, so he is very influential and at present, he is a powerful man in the entire party and the entire party is afraid of him. Earlier also there was an assault case on him. There is a message at the party ‘agar Bibhav naraj hogya aapse toh fir aap khatam ho party main,” Maliwal said
