Staff Reporter

A Delhi court on Wednesday directed officials to provide AAP leader  and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia the May 23 CCTV footage of its premises when he was allegedly manhandled by security personnel.

The judge noted that following an earlier court order, the official concerned of Rouse Avenue District Courts premises had brought the CCTV footage of May 23 pertaining to production of Sisodia before the court in the case.

"As some allegations of manhandling against lockup officials were levelled on behalf of the accused earlier, the said footage has been directed to be preserved and produced... Let an extra copy of the above footage in a separate pen drive be also provided by the Assistant Engineer (Electrical), PWD to Reader of the court before next date and the same be supplied to counsel representing the said accused," the judge said.

Special judge M K Nagpal listed the matter for August 25. Sisodia was produced physically before the court for Wednesday's proceedings.
