Plaint filed against Sisodia for spreading fake news

New Delhi: Supreme Court lawyer Alakh Alok Srivastava against Delhi Deputy Chief Minister and AAP leader Manish Sisodia has filed a criminal complaint in Delhi court for spreading fake news. Manish Sisodia is accused of spreading misinformation about the Delhi Police.

This complaint has been made against Manish Sisodia for sharing a fake video of Delhi Police. It has been told in the videos that Delhi Police is setting fire to buses during Jamia violence.

Actually this video is during the protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act. The video is about the violence in the vicinity of Jamia Millia Islamia. Where many buses were set on fire during the violence.

In the viral video on social media, the policemen are seen throwing some stuff in the can inside the bus. It was claimed that the fire in the buses was set by the Delhi Police.

Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia shared this video on his Twitter account. He wrote, "BJP is on fire in Delhi for fear of defeat in elections. AAP is against any kind of violence. This is BJP's cheap politics. In the entire case, DCP Chinmay Biswal of South-East Delhi said that, the matter of setting fire by the police is completely false. When the crowd was on fire, the police was working to extinguish the fire by asking people for water.

The Delhi Police's PRO MS Randhawa had also said that the police had not extinguished the fire but extinguished it.
