Atishi served police notice, she says no mention of FIR, IPC
Hindustan Times|February 05, 2024
A Delhi Police crime branch team visited Aam Aadmi Party leader Atishi's residence on Sunday to serve her a notice in connection with allegations she made that the Bharatiya Janata Party was attempting to poach seven AAP legislators.
Atishi served police notice, she says no mention of FIR, IPC

Atishi, who holds the finance portfolio in the Delhi government, later said the entire process was turned into a "prime time drama" as the notice neither mentions an first information report (FIR), it is not a summons, nor does it have sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), or the Prevention of Corruption Act (PCA).

BJP leaders, meanwhile, demanded that the AAP either share evidence about its poaching allegations, or apologise.

The development occurred a day after crime branch team reached the residence of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal to serve him a notice to join the probe. While officials from the chief minister's office said they were ready to accept the police notice, police officers insisted on handing it over to the chief minister in person, leading to an argument between the two sides on Saturday.
