New Delhi: A man caught with live bullets at Arvind Kejriwal's home has been  arrested in the second such breach of the Delhi Chief Minister's security after a chilli powder attack on him last week.The man, identified as Imran, 39, was among clerics who had gone to meet Arvind Kejriwal on Monday, with a request to increase the salary paid by the Waqf Board.A bullet was found on him by a security guard who was frisking him. The man, who works as the caretaker of a mosque, has been arrested under the stringent Arms Act. He told the police that he found the bullets in the donation box of a mosque, kept them in his wallet and forgot about them. Last Thursday, a man was arrested after he flung chilli powder at Mr Kejriwal right outside his office - an incident that raised questions about the Chief Minister's security and provoked allegations from the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) that their chief was being targeted. The attacker, Anil Sharma, claimed that he had tried to meet the Chief Minister one-and-a-half-years ago but after he could not meet him, he broke the glass panes in the reception area of Delhi Secretariat. The police drew criticism as they initially claimed the chilli powder may have fallen "unintentionally" from Sharma's pocket.
Later, they said the 40-year-old was "unstable and incoherent". Mr Kejriwal yesterday alleged that the BJP was behind the chilli powder attack on him as it was "baffled" by the "good work" done by the AAP government.
Speaking at a one-day special session of the Delhi Assembly called to discuss the attack, Mr Kejriwal said, "Narendra Modi should resign if he cannot protect Delhi's chief minister."For more news on Delhi click here
