Delhi Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung on Tuesday cleared AAP MLA Somnath Bharti’s prosecution for being a part of the Khirki Extension midnight raid.
In January 2014, Bharti along with his supporters had allegedly barged into the residence of a few African nationals living in Khirki Extension in south Delhi.
He claimed that his actions were based on complaints by other residents in the area that they had set up a drugs and prostitution racket there. Bharti was the then Delhi law minister.
