New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Prakash Jarwal has alleged that three shots were fired at him on Wednesday during an event in south Delhi's Shani Bazaar area. However, the Delhi Police has denied the claims.
Jarwal also claimed that he was shot at on Sunday when he was at Sangam Vihar of south Delhi. He said that he has filed a formal complaint at the Neb Sarai police station.
Jarwal suspected that he was shot at on Wednesday by an illegal alcohol distributor, who had been chasing him for the past three days.
He alleged that despite asking the police for security, no action was taken in this regard.
"My life is in danger. I was previously attacked on Sunday and informed police about it but nothing was done," he said.
In his complaint, Jarwal said that an AAP worker was also got death threats by the same person over the phone which was recorded by him.
However, the Deputy Commissioner of Police (South), Vijay Kumar said that the CCTV footage which was collected from the spot does not show any incident of firing, though further investigation is underway.
