Maliwal posts on X regarding video

Earlier, regarding the same video clip, Swati Maliwal slammed an unnamed individual, calling him a “political hitman,” and stated that he had begun efforts to protect himself.

She added that the ‘truth’ will come out once the CCTV footage of the house and the room is examined.

“Like every time, this time also this political hitman has started efforts to save himself. By getting his people to tweet and playing videos without any context, he thinks he can save himself by committing this crime. Who makes a video of someone being beaten up? The truth will be revealed to everyone as soon as the CCTV footage of the house and the room is checked. Fall to whatever level you can, God is watching everything. One day everyone’s truth will come out in front of the world.” Maliwal posted on X.
