A Delhi court granted bail to AAP legislator Alka lamba on Wednesday in a case of alleged trespassing and vandalising a shop and obstructing police from performing their duty last year.
Metropolitan Magistrate Abhilash Malhotra granted bail to lamba on furnishing of a personal bond of Rs10,000 and surety of like amount. Further hearing will be conducted on June 3.
lamba was earlier summoned as accused in the case by the court which had taken cognisance of a charge sheet filed by police against her.
She was chargesheeted for alleged offences under Sections 186 (obstructing public servant in discharge of public functions), 353 (assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty), 427 (mischief causing damage to property), 451 (house-trespass) and 34 (common intention) of the IPC.
It is stated in the charge sheet that on August 9, 2015, lamba along with some other persons committed trespass in the shop of complainant and threw cash bill machine, vandalised the counter and obstructed and deterred the police personnel.
An FIR was lodged against the AAP MlA from Chandni Chowk on August 10 last year, a day after she had received head injuries in a stone-pelting attack during her anti-drug campaign in the Kashmere Gate area.
The case was registered at Kashmere Gate Police Station on a complaint by traders including the proprietor of a sweet shop, Shiv Mishthan Bhandar.
The case was lodged against lamba after a video clip emerged in which she was allegedly seen vandalising shops along with some of her supporters.
