The Delhi police denied media reports on tampering of CCTVs seized from Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal's residence in connection with assault case of Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash by two Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs.

Harendra K Singh, Additional DCP, North, said, "Sections of media saying Police said in court that CCTVs tampered with. It's factually wrong and irresponsible. Today, defence counsel stated that police must prove that tampering has been done."

He said, "It was informed to a court that site visit reveals discrepancies in the timing. Only Forensic Science Laboratory will be able to tell if any tampering has been done. Please don't quote police with factually wrong information."
