Aam Aadmi Party leader Alka Lamba has lodged a police complaint against Delhi legislator Vinod Kumar Binny and 21 others for alleging on a social media website that she is running a sex trade in her house.
Police has registered a case.
Binny, however, refuted the charges saying someone created a fake account in his name to malign him.
"I have lodged a complaint against Binny and 21 others who are trying to defame me by airing false allegations on social media. Binny and a few more rivals are continuously putting derogatory remarks on facebook against me," Lamba told IANS.
She said that on Friday she lodged a written complaint against Binny and others at the Kotla Mubarakpur police station.
She also said that if a proper probe was not carried out she would approach Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi and Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung.
Police said a case under the section 66A (for posting objectionable comments on social media) of IT Act, 354A (Sexual harrassment)and 354D (Stalking) of the Indian Penal Code was registered at the Delhi Police Economic Offences Wing.
Binny told IANS that someone has created a fake account in his name and he has complained to the police.
He also said that he will hold a press conference at his house Sunday on the matter.
