    Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal has opened up about the death and rape threats she has been receiving, following an alleged “character assassination” campaign launched by AAP and she claimed that the situation just got worse when YouTuber Dhruv Rathee released a one-sided video against her on the assault allegations.

    Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Maliwal said that after the leaders and volunteers of AAP orchestrated a campaign of charachter assassination, victim shaming and fanning of emotions against her, she has been getting rape and death threats.

    “This got further exacerbated when YouTuber @Dhruv_Rathee posted a one-sided video against me. As far as the party leadership goes, it is very clear that they are trying to intimidate me into withdrawing my complaint. However, for Dhruv, I tried my best to reach out to him to tell him my version but he ignored my calls and messages,” she further said.(More to come)

Reacting to it, Maliwal attacked AAP and said, people who recently joined the party are now calling her a BJP agent. In her recent tweet, she said that the party was being threatened by a ‘goon’, and had taken a “U-turn” on their stand. She further also alleged CCTV at Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal’s residence was being tampered. Meanwhile, CM Kejriwal’s PA Bibhav Kumar also filed a written complaint against Swati Maliwal.
