A Sikh youth allegedly tried to attack and hurled abuses at senior Congress leader and 1984-riots accused Jagdish Tytler at a wedding in South Delhi's Chattarpur area. Tytler escaped unhurt and the accused was arrested.
Sehaj Umang Bhatia (23) allegedly threw a piece of glass at Tytler and abused him during the function at a farm house in Mehrauli last night.
"Tytler was here to attend a wedding last night when Sehaj Umang Singh Bhatia threw a piece of glass at him and hurled abuses. Tytler was, however, not hit and was escorted to his vehicle safely," a senior police official said.
"The accused has been arrested and is being questioned," he added. The attack comes a day after a Delhi court refused to accept the closure report and directed the CBI to conduct further investigation into the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case against Tytler.
Attempts to contact Tytler for his comment over the attack did not fructify.
