On Saturday, Delhi’s Tis Hazari Court extended the judicial custody of Bibhav Kumar, a close aide of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, until June 22 in Swati Maliwal Assault Case
Kumar is implicated in the assault case involving AAP MP and former head of the Delhi Women’s Commission, Swati Maliwal.
Kumar was initially arrested on May 18 and placed in police custody for five days by a magisterial court, which ruled that his anticipatory bail request was moot due to his arrest. On May 24, he was transferred to judicial custody for four days, after which he was again remanded in police custody for an additional three days.
An FIR was filed against Kumar on May 16, citing several Indian Penal Code provisions, including criminal intimidation, assault or use of criminal force on a woman with intent to disrobe, and attempt to commit culpable homicide.
