TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday slammed the Delhi Police for “misbehaving” with former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia at the Rouse Avenue Court here.

“Does the police have the right to misbehave with Manish ji like this? Has the police been asked from above to do this?” Kejriwal asked on Twitter while retweeting a video posted by AAP Minister Atishi

In her tweet, Atishi had said: “Shocking misbehaviour by this policeman with Manish ji in Rouse Avenue Court. Delhi Police should suspend him immediately.” In response, Delhi Police rubbished the allegations and claimed it was “propaganda”.
