While opposing Bharti\u2019s plea, prosecutor Shailendra Babbar said the offences alleged against him were serious. He said two notices have already been issued to him by the police for joining probe in the case but he was running away and not cooperating with the agency.<\/p>\n<p>He also claimed that Bharti was an influencial person due to which nobody was coming forward to depose against him. The prosecutor said two FIRs were earlier registered against Bharti, including one on alleged molestation of African women. He also said the politician\u2019s wife was called for mediation four times but it did not help. Bharti\u2019s wife Lipika, who was present in the courtroom, opposed the anticipatory bail plea, saying \u201cmy small kids are suffering.<\/p>\n<p>I love my husband and that is why I suffered the abuse for five years.\u201d On court\u2019s query if mediation was an option, she refused and said \u201cno reconciliation is possible. He left me to die in front of my children.\u201d Lipika had filed a complaint of domestic violence with the Delhi Commission for Women on June 10 alleging that her husband had been abusing her since their marriage in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>She had also given a complaint to police in this regard. The Delhi Police had last week registered an FIR against Bharti under sections 307 (attempt to murder), \u00a098A(cruelty towards partner in marriage), 324(voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapon), 406 (criminal breach of trust), 420 (cheating) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of IPC.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Delhi court on Monday refused to grant anticipatory bail to Aam Aadmi Party MLA Somnath Bharti in a domestic violence and attempt to murder case filed against him by his wife.
