AAP accuses BJP of kidnapping and threatening councillor with 'ED-CBI cases'



NEW DELHI: The Aam Aadmi Party on Sunday accused the BJP of “kidnapping” its councillor Ram Chander, with the saffron party denying the charges even as the “abducted” member returned to his residence.Upon his return, Chander claimed that he was threatened on the pretext of being framed in ED-CBI cases by the opposition outfit.Ram Chander, who is a councillor from Ward No 28, was one of the five members who joined the BJP last Sunday.However, a few days later, he had a change of heart after he saw Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in his dream and returned to AAP, he said.Later, in a video message, he said that he was taken by some people to BJP headquarters.”There they threatened me saying I would be framed by ED and CBI. My son Akash called the police helpline while our senior party leaders called the police commissioner. When they (BJP) got to know about it, they sent me back home,” Chander said in the video message.”I want to tell BJP, I am not scared of ED and CBI. I have done nothing wrong. I am a soldier of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal,” he said in the video shared by AAP.On Sunday, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh shared a video of Ram Chander’s son Akash on X alleging that his father had been kidnapped.In the video, Akash says, “My father received a call from an ex-councillor of BJP saying, ‘We are standing downstairs near your house to meet you’. My father went downstairs to his office. What we have learnt is that there were four to five people, who threatened my father that he would be implicated by ED-CBI and they have taken him. We are searching for him.”
