This claim of the saffron party comes after a video of the incident surfaced on Friday, 20 January.

Describing the entire episode as a “fake sting operation by AAP”, 51-year-old Tiwari also showed a photo frame in which Jarwal is seen with MLA Harish Chandra Suryavanshi, accused of harassing and dragging the DCW chief in his car.

He said, “This is a shocking case for Delhi. Those who have the responsibility of Delhi… What picture are they (AAP) trying to show to Delhi? We are not saying that such an incident cannot happen.” Or not, but why is there any need to do this fake sting? Why does the woman (Maliwal) standing there turn the car and go to the other side?’ Tiwari added.
