Chandigarh: Delhi Police after taking the custody of BJP leader Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga is being brought back to Delhi. Punjab police, earlier in the day, had arrested Bagga from Delhi.
However, vehicles bringing Bagga, who has been highly vocal against Kejriwal on social media, from Delhi to Mohali got held up in Haryana's Kurukshetra. Sources said that Haryana police officials were talking to their Punjab counterparts over some issues.
There is no official word from the Haryana police yet.
As the situation escalated with the AAP and the BJP trading charges, the Delhi Police registered a case of kidnapping based on a complaint by Bagga's father that some people came to his house in Delhi's Janakpuri around 8 am and took away his son.
The Punjab police, in a statement, said Bagga is being brought to Punjab and will be produced before a court.
Bagga (36) was arrested in the morning from his home following due process of law, the Punjab Police said while claiming that despite being served five notices, he did not join the investigation.
Last month, the Punjab Police booked him on the charges of making provocative statements, promoting enmity and criminal intimidation. The case was registered on a complaint of AAP leader Sunny Ahluwalia, a resident of Mohali. (PTI)
