Launching an attack on DCP Crime Branch Rajesh Deo, Sanjay said, ''Investigation has not been completed yet, and a police officer is taking a party's name, at a time when the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) is in place, this is completely unfair,'' adding, ''Is BJP asking Delhi police to say all this and on whose direction is Rajesh Deo working?''


Taking a jibe at BJP, the AAP leader said BJP is trying to play dirty politics few days ahead of the election, AAP will file a complaint to Election Commission (EC) against DCP Crime Branch Rajesh Deo.


Addressing a press conference in AAP office, Sanjay said, ''See, Amit Shah is the Home Minister of this country at this moment. Now, you will get various pictures, videos and conspiracy theories before elections. We have been waiting for this. There are three to four days are left for the elections. BJP will create as many conspiracies as possible in these days."
