The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) acknowledged earlier on May 14, 2024, that Bhabhiv Kumar had attacked Swati in the chief minister’s house. Hence, they threatened to take strict action against him.

After that, Bhabiv Kumar was seen last night at the Lucknow airport with party member Sanjay Singh and the national convenor of AAP. However, Swati has not responded to this alleged incident since the matter came to the public.

Delhi police also visited Swati at her home on Minto Road to record her statement regarding this incident. According to Delhi police, she did not contact them to file a complaint. Hence, they would wait for some time. If she doesn’t respond, they might contact her.
