AAP Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal made an extremely shocking revelation this Sunday morning, when she revealed receiving rape and death threats after a one-sided campaign run by leaders and volunteers of her own party, allegedly YouTuber Dhruv Rathee. Maliwal on Sunday took it to her Twitter handle and mentioned that the leaders and volunteers of her own party are planning moves against her after she filed a complaint of assault against her by Bibhav Kumar.
According to Maliwal’s latest tweet, members of her own party are planning and plotting campaigns of “character assassination,” against her. She further mentioned that this escalated when YouTuber Dhruv Rathee dropped a one-sided video against her. Post that, she received tons of death and rape threats on the internet, with many victim shaming her and pushing her to take the complaint back.
In the tweet, she called out the YouTuber, who apparently claims to be an independent journalist but internally works for the party and victim shames to a level where one can face extreme threats. For the unversed, a few days ago Maliwal accused Bibhav Kumar of assaulting her Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence on May 13. Followed by which Kumar was arrested by the Delhi Police.
