The Delhi High Court reserved its order on the maintainability of a plea by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal s aide, Bibhav Kumar, challenging his arrest in connection with the alleged assault on AAP MP Swati Maliwal. The court heard arguments from both sides, with Kumar s counsel arguing that his arrest violated fundamental rights and legal provisions. The police s lawyer argued that the plea was not maintainable since the objection regarding compliance with Section 41A had been rejected by the trial court.
Kumar, in his plea, has sought a direction to declare his arrest as illegal and in gross violation of the provisions of Section 41A (notice of appearance before police officer) of the Code of Criminal Procedure and against the mandate of the law. Follow news18.com for more updates.
