No FIR had been lodged till late on Sunday evening.
Misa Bharti, who is a Rajya Sabha member, rejected Aishwariya Rai’s allegations as “baseless and false”. “I am in New Delhi for the last few days. How can I assault somebody or misbehave with them?” she asked.
She also rubbished allegations that she was trying to ruin her sister-in-law’s marriage and creating a rift between her brothers. “She is making all sorts of allegations at the behest of her parents and to make her legal battle more strong.”
Bharti said she has always treated Aishwariya Rai as her sister and supported her in her trying times.
Devi could not be contacted for her comments.
