Mohali, 12th Nov: A reported Arvind Kejriwal extortion threat has prompted a police investigation after an unidentified caller allegedly demanded ₹7 crore and threatened to kill the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor and his daughter, Harshita Kejriwal.

AAP MLA Jarnail Singh, who represents Delhi’s Tilak Nagar constituency, approached the Mohali police with a complaint on November 6. He said he received a threatening phone call and a WhatsApp message from an unidentified number.

According to the complaint, the caller claimed to be associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and asked Singh to convey a demand of ₹7 crore to Kejriwal. The caller allegedly threatened to kill the AAP leader and his daughter if the money was not paid.

The same threat was reportedly repeated in a WhatsApp message sent to Singh’s personal mobile number. The MLA submitted a screenshot of the message, along with its timestamp and sender details, to the police.

Mohali Police have registered a case under relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Information Technology Act. The investigation has been assigned to the Cyber Crime Police Station.

Singh has sought a detailed investigation into the caller’s identity and possible involvement of other individuals. His complaint calls for examination of call detail records, internet protocol (IP) logs and location data linked to the number used to make the call and send the message.

The MLA has also urged the police to coordinate with other security agencies to ensure the safety of Kejriwal and his family.

Police are examining the available digital evidence. The caller’s identity and the claimed connection with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang have not yet been independently established.
