New Delhi: Terror outfit Indian Mujahideen has plans to abduct Arvind Kejriwal for release of its key member Yaseen Bhatkal, police said but the Chief Minister on Sunday doubted the police version and refused to take security.
A team from the security wing of Delhi Police has briefed Kejriwal about intelligent inputs about the terror outfit’s plan and requested him to take ‘Z’ category security cover but Kejriwal declined to oblige, the top sources said.
Senior Police officials said that they have received an input in this regard from intelligence agencies and conveyed it to Kejriwal.
“I am not afraid of my life. As I said, I strongly believe in God. Will not take any security,” the Delhi Chief Minister said.
Kejriwal has been declining to take security cover keeping up with his Aam Aadmi Party’s policy to end VIP culture in politics.
IM co-founder Bhatkal was arrested from Indo-Nepal border on August 27 last year. (PTI)
