New Delhi: The Delhi Police on Wednesday recovered three electronic devices, allegedly used for filming a 'sex video', from the residence of sacked Aam Aadmi Party MLA Sandeep Kumar.
The devices, including a mobile phone, have been sent to a laboratory for forensic examination, said India Today.

Taking advantage of the woman's drowsiness Kumar committed "sexual assault" on her, Delhi Police said.
