Stressing that she had never tried to implicate her mother-in-law, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Somnath Bharti's wife Lipika Mitra on Monday stated that she wants her marriage with the former Delhi Law Minister to end.
"I never implicated my mother in law, have forgiven her. She is not in the picture, I want out from the marriage," Mitra told ANI.
She had earlier alleged that her husband had asked her if she was working for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), adding that he started calling her everyday after she filed a complaint with the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW).
Mitra also disclosed that she has documentary and electronic evidence of the abuses suffered by her.
On June 10, the DCW served a notice to Bharti after Mitra accused him of domestic violence.
She has alleged that she has been facing violence at the hands of Bharti since 2010 and has said that she wants a separation in order to live with her children 'with dignity'.
