Amanatullah Khan arrest: AAP workers hold protest; halt traffic

Amanatullah Khan arrest: AAP workers hold protest; halt traffic
New Delhi, Jul 24 (UNI) Following the arrest of Aam Aadmi Party MLA Amanatullah Khan, several party workers today held protest outside the CR park police station, where the Okhla legislator has been kept. The protest also led to traffic congestion in the area, disturbing the normal schedule of the people. Agitated with the protest, several commuters also had heated arguments with AAP workers, who had choked the road. One of the lady commuters, who was agitated over not being able to go to the hospital, had arguments with the workers, who in reply asked her to take another route and tell the police to do it. Other commuters joined her and said, "Thousands of people are suffering because of one MLA." To this, the AAP workers started shouting at the people, saying "You care about ambulance, what about our MLA? They have arrested him and you are least bothered about it. We are pained because of our MLa's arrest." Khan was arrested today on charges of threatening a woman, following a complaint lodged by her. Khan was booked on July 20 by Jamia Nagar Police Station after the complaint was lodged by Dr Sameena, alleging that the MLA threatened her of sexual assault and getting her crushed under the car. However, the AAP yesterday accused the Delhi Police of pressuring the woman to lodge the FIR against Khan and the party also released a purported sting video to substantiate its claim.
