Swati Maliwal Alleges Video Tampering in Assault Case

Swati Maliwal, Aam Aadmi Party's Rajya Sabha MP, on Saturday night claimed that the CCTV camera footage of the May 13 incident where she was allegedly assaulted by Arvind Kejriwal's aide Bibhav Kumar at the chief minister residence has “disappeared” and edited videos were being released.

Bibhav Kumar was arrested in connection with the alleged assault on Swati Maliwal and sent a five-day police custody by Delhi's Tis Hazari Court on Saturday night.

Karnataka Police Arrests Man Over Congress Manifesto Post

The Karnataka Police on Saturday reportedly arrested a man from Goa over his alleged now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter) against the Congress manifesto.

Media reports claimed that the man, whose social media handle is BhikuMhatre (@MumbaichaDon), had alleged in his post that the Congress “wants to take away wealth from Hindus and distribute it to Muslims as it hates Hindus” - a claim that BJP leaders have also made.

The social media post against the Congress was reportedly posted last month.

According to a report by The Indian Express, BhikuMhatre's arrest came after a Bengaluru resident and Congress worker filed a complaint with the cybercrime police on April 29.

The police then registered a case against the X user under section 153(a) of the Indian Penal Code and 66(c) of the Information Technology Act.

Royal Challengers Bangalore Secure Final Playoff Spot in IPL 2024

Royal Challengers Bangalore continued their remarkable run by securing the fourth and final playoff spot with a crucial 27-run victory over defending champions Chennai Super Kings in their must-win last IPL 2024 league match on Saturday.

RCB's sixth consecutive win saw them post an imposing 218/5 after being put into bat before restricting CSK to 191 for seven.

This victory marked RCB's ninth playoff appearance in 15 seasons.

Despite a spirited fightback from Ravindra Jadeja, who remained unbeaten on 42, and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who contributed 25, RCB managed to hold their nerve.

Rachin Ravindra's earlier 61 had given CSK a glimmer of hope, but Yash Dayal's composed final over – where he conceded only 7 runs – ensured the hosts' triumph.
