Sonam Wangchuk | Police claimed it was a medical team: protesters; AAP MLA says sheets were brought to block the view of cameras

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) president and MLA Saurabh Bharadwaj on Saturday slammed the central government after Delhi Police took climate activist Sonam Wangchuk to Safdarjung Hospital in the national capital following his days of indefinite hunger strike.

In a post on X, Bharadwaj shared a video of Wangchuk being taken away. He wrote: “Modi Govt Delhi Police officers, dressed in civilian clothes and sports shoes, forcefully entered the protest site,” adding, “They brought dozens of white sheets to block the view of the cameras, so that any violence/manipulation of Sonam Wangchuk and others was not caught on video.”

This is a developing story. Further details were awaited.
