On July 10, the complainant called up Amantullah and even went to his Batla House residence to raise the issue of frequent power cuts with him. But the minister did not meet her.
Meanwhile, when she was returning, a youth came out of the house and threatened her with dire consequences for politicizing the issue.
Amanatullah, however, had said he did not even know if the woman came to his residence.
Then, a case has been registered against the legislator under Sections 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation) and 509 (word, gesture or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) at the Jamia Nagar police station in south Delhi, the officer said.
This is the fourth complaint against an AAP MLA in the last one month.
