AAP's Somnath Bharti denies allegations of 'tampering with evidence’

Delhi Law Minister Somnath Bharti on Tuesday denied allegations that he tampered with the evidence in a case that he was handling as a lawyer.

According to a TOI report Bharti and his client Pawan Kumar are facing prosecution on corruption charges - after the CBI accused them of influencing a prosecution's witness by speaking to him on phone and discussing it.

Earlier in the day, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also defended Law Minister Somanth Bharti asserting that his cabinet colleague did not tamper with evidence.


However Bharatiya Janata Party demanded the resignation of Bharti over his indictment by a CBI court for allegedly influencing a witness in a bank fraud case.
