Bibhav Kumar was brought to Mumbai by Delhi Police for the retrieval of data from his formatted iPhone.

Delhi Police had earlier mentioned in the Tis Hazari Court that they would take Kumar to Mumbai to the place where he had allegedly formatted his phone.

Delhi Police will take him to all those locations in Mumbai where he visited. The most important thing for the police investigation is to find out why and where Bibhav formatted his phone.

The police is likely to record statements of the people who Bibhav met during his visit to Mumbai. 

Meanwhile, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed to investigate the Swati Maliwal case. 

This comes a week after the AAP Rajya Sabha MP accused party chief Arvind Kejriwal's former personal secretary Bibhav Kumar of assaulting her at the Chief Minister's residence.

Earlier on Monday, the Delhi Police took Bibhav Kumar to the drawing room of Kejriwal's residence on Monday where Kumar had allegedly assaulted Maliwal, to find out the sequence of events that took place on the morning of May 13.

Bibhav Kumar has lodged a counter-complaint with the police on Friday, accusing Maliwal of gaining 'unauthorised entry' into the CM's Civil Lines residence and 'verbally abusing' him.
