Delhi BJP chief’s iPhone stolen

New Delhi: Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Manoj Tiwari’s iPhone was stolen during a crowded event here, police said on Monday.

The incident occurred on Sunday evening when the BJP MP had gone to attend a Swadeshi Jagran Manch event in Ramlila Maidan.

As Tiwari went to the podium to deliver his speech, he checked for his iPhone but did not find it in his pocket, police said.

The BJP leader has lodged a robbery complaint at Kamla Market Police Station.

“There were thousands of people and party workers at the Ramlila Maidan to attend the event. Someone may have taken advantage of the crowd and taken away Tiwari’s iPhone,” a police officer told IANS.

Tiwari’s personal security officer also lost his shoes and wallet at the event, the officer said.
