New Delhi: AAP MLA Somnath Bharti, who was arrested on Thursday for allegedly inciting a mob to damage part of the AIIMS boundary wall and misbehaving with security officials, was granted bail by a Delhi court which ruled that the ‘chances of the legislator fleeing from justice were remote and he deserved the relief’.
Bharti was the second party legislator arrested by Delhi police in past 24 hours.
Hearing the news of the arrest, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, “I am amazed that at a time when PM should be working on Uri, his machinery is working overtime to get AAP MLAs arrested or me implicated in false cases.”
