New Delhi [India], May 9 (ANI): The statement of Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga could not be recorded before a court on Monday as the Delhi BJP leader was not present in the national capital.

Advocates for Bagga appeared today before Metropolitan Magistrate Nitika Kapoor and submitted that they will move an application for releasing two mobile phones belonging to Bagga and his father which were allegedly snatched by the unknown persons on Friday morning.
Counsels Sanket Gupta and YP Singh also submitted that they were under an apprehension that such incidents may occur again, so the Court may direct the Delhi Police to provide security to Bagga and his family.
