Yogendra Yadav dragged, "beaten up" by police, Kejriwal condemns
Reports said Yadav had barely started speaking when he had his supporters were pushed away by personnel at the Parliament Street police station.
The 51-year-old former AAP leader alleged that he was "beaten up, manhandled" at the police station. He tweeted a picture of himself with a torn sleeve.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted: "I strongly condemn the treatment meted out to Yogendraji by Delhi police. They were protesting peacefully. It is their fundamental right."
Yadav was expelled from the AAP earlier this year.
