New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday refused bail to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's aide Vibhav Kumar, who is accused of attacking AAP Rajya Sabha member Swati Maliwal.

Justice Anoop Kumar Mendiratta rejected Kumar's bail plea saying there was no basis for granting him relief.

Kumar, who is currently in judicial custody, had allegedly attacked Maliwal at Kejriwal's official residence on May 13. He was arrested on 18 May.

An FIR was registered against Kumar on May 16 under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code, including cases related to criminal intimidation, assault or criminal force with intent to disarm a woman and attempt to commit culpable homicide.

Kumar had sought bail claiming that the allegations were false and his custody was no longer required after the investigation was completed.
