Earlier today, the AAP shared a new CCTV footage of Maliwal being escorted out of Kejriwal's residence by security personnel. "This video exposes the truth behind Swati Maliwal's allegations," the party claimed.
The medical report comes a day after the AAP Rajya Sabha MP attacked her party for dismissing as baseless her assault allegations against Bibhav Kumar, and said the AAP has given in under a "goon's pressure" and is now questioning her character.
She accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of backtracking just two days after acknowledging Kumar's "misbehaviour" with her.
Her response followed a press conference by AAP leader Atishi, where she claimed that the assault case was a plot by the BJP to target Kejriwal. Atishi labeled Maliwal as the "front" of this scheme, dismissing her allegations against Kumar as unfounded.
Taking to X, Maliwal in a post in Hindi, said, "The leaders who joined the party (AAP) yesterday declared a worker who has been with it for 20 years an agent of the BJP. Two days ago, the party had accepted the truth in a press conference and, today, it has taken a U-turn."

On Tuesday, senior AAP leader and MP Sanjay Singh had denounced the incident involving Maliwal, asserting that Kumar had indeed "misbehaved" with her.
Without naming Kumar, she said, "This goon is threatening the party (AAP) saying that ''if I get arrested, I will reveal all the secrets''. That is why he is roaming around in Lucknow and everywhere seeking shelter."
"Today, under his pressure, the party gave in and to save a goon, my character was questioned by the entire party. No problem, I have been fighting alone for women of the entire country, I will fight for myself too. Do character assassination as much as possible, the truth will come out when the time comes," Maliwal said on X.
Maliwal, later in another post on X in Hindi, alleged, "I have received information that now these people are getting the CCTV cameras at the house (CM's residence) tampered.
@DelhiPolice."
The Delhi Police has filed an FIR against Kumar for allegedly assaulting Maliwal at the chief minister's official residence on May 13. Atishi further stated that Kumar has also lodged a police complaint against Maliwal.
