New Delhi,(IANS) The Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday said its leaders Aashish Khetan and Imran Hussain were heckled and manhandled and party volunteers thrashed by "motivated elements" masquerading as Delhi government employees.

The party said Khetan was "assaulted" by the mob after which he called the PCR (Police Control Room) and reported he was manhandled.

"There was a mob, unruly and aggressive. They ran towards me shouting pro-BJP slogans... my staff has been hurt," said Khetan.

He said a complaint had been lodged with the Daryaganj police station.

Delhi government spokesperson Nagendar Sharma said Hussain was also on his way to lodge a complaint at the IP Estate police station.
