Delhi's Tis Hazari court on Friday sent Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's aide Bibhav Kumar to 14 days judicial custody in the Swati Maliwal assault case.
Kumar was arrested on May 18 and sent to police custody for five days by a magisterial court, which observed that his anticipatory bail plea had become infructuous because of his arrest.
The FIR against Kumar was registered on May 16 under various Indian Penal Code (IPC) provisions, including those related to criminal intimidation, assault or criminal force on a woman with the intent to disrobe, and attempt to commit culpable homicide.
