Sorry not enough': Case registered against AAP MP over Parliament video
New Delhi: A complaint has been registered against AAP MP Bhagwant Mann at the Parliament Street Police station, on Friday, in connection with the controversial video on the high security Parliament House complex.
The case comes despite the AAP MP offering an unconditional apology to Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan over his video.
According to sources, the Speaker was not impressed with Mann’s apology as his video was a serious matter concerning the security of the Parliament which had been attacked once.

Mann appeared before the Lok Sabha Speaker after being summoned over the video issue.
Sources in the Lok Sabha Secretariat said Mahajan had been trying to contact Mann since Thursday evening but his phone was not reachable. He could finally be contacted this morning.
The Speaker had sought his explanation on the video and Mr. Mann gave his views, they said.
In the nearly 12-minute video, Mann gives a running commentary as his vehicle crosses security barricades and enters Parliament. “I’ll today show you something you would not have seen earlier,” he is heard saying in the video.
Mann is then showed entering a room where questions to be taken up inside Parliament are being sorted and describes the process.
The issue led to the adjournment of House, first for an hour during Question Hour and then for the day.
