A 39-year-old man who had gone to meet Arvind Kejriwal as part of a delegation of clerics on Monday was arrested after live bullets were found on him. This is the second security incident involving the Delhi Chief Minister after a chilli powder attack on him last week.
Mohammad Imran was among a dozen clerics who had gone to Arvind Kejriwal’s home for a public hearing orjanta durbar, with a request to increase the salary paid by the Waqf Board. A bullet was found in his wallet by a security guard who was frisking him.
Last Thursday, a man was arrested after he flung chilli powder at Kejriwal right outside his office – an incident that raised questions about the Chief Minister’s security and provoked allegations from the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) that their chief was being targeted.
