NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Wednesday sent Delhi CM Rekha Gupta’s alleged attacker, Rajesh Bhai Khimji Bhai Sakariya, to five days police remand.
The 41-year-old Rajkot resident was produced before the Duty Metropolitan Magistrate at midnight.
During this remand period, Delhi Police may take Sakariya to Rajkot. Investigators may also recreate the crime scene at the Chief Minister’s Civil Lines residence.
Police officials said they will check who Sakariya met and spoke to after arriving in Delhi. His mobile phone has been sent for forensic tests to examine whether a bigger conspiracy is behind the assault.
The shocking incident happened during a Jan Sunwai (public hearing) at the CM’s residence earlier in the day. Officials said that Sakariya first gave some papers to the Chief Minister, then suddenly started shouting and yelling before striking her. He was quickly overpowered and arrested by security staff.
Police sources revealed that one of Sakariya’s relatives is in jail and he had come with a petition demanding their release, which is still pending in court.
His family members also shared details about his background. Eyewitnesses claimed that people at the event thrashed him before police took him away.
Initial reports had claimed that the CM was slapped.
However, Delhi BJP chief Virendraa Sachdeva clarified the situation. He denied those reports, saying that the attacker tried to pull the Chief Minister by the hand, and in the scuffle,
“her head may have hit a corner.”
Doctors later confirmed that the CM is out of danger but in shock. Sachdeva praised her spirit, saying,
“She remains determined to continue her daily work and Jan Sunwai sessions,”
and added that she is a
“strong woman with a clear commitment to Delhi.”
After the incident, the CM herself gave her first response on social media.
She said,
“The attack on me during this morning’s public hearing was not just an attack on me, but a cowardly attempt on our resolve to serve Delhi and work for the welfare of the people.”
Officials further quoted her as saying that the programme will not stop and
“It had not broken her spirit.”
