September 25, 2015 18:43

The Delhi police has been unable to trace AAP MLA and former Delhi minister Somnath Bharti, wanted in a case of domestic violence and attempt to murder, by his wife.

According to ANI, the cops have again picked up Bharti's dog Don instead. Bharti had absconded after a non-bailable warrant had been issued against him.

In her complaint to police, Bhartis wife Lipika Mitra had accused him of unleashing the dog on her while she was pregnant and subjecting her to severe verbal, mental and physical torture.

Though Bharti has now approached the Supreme Court, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has openly asked his MLA to surrender. On Wednesday, Kejriwal said Bharti had become an embarrassment to the party.
