New Delhi: Congress leader and 1984 riots accused Jagdish Tyler was allegedly attacked while he was attending a wedding in Mehrauli. The assailant Sehaj Singh was arrested but later got bail. Singh had an argument with Tytler questioning why he was present at the wedding after the argument escalated and the man threw a piece of glass at him but Tytler escaped unhurt.
"Tytler was here to attend a wedding on Saturday 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 comments over the attack did not fructify.
