New Delhi: A Delhi court yesterday sent a woman, accused of throwing ink at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at a rally here following the completion of government's odd-even experiment, to one-day police custody.

Metropolitan Magistrate Sunil Kumar remanded Bhavna Arora to police custody till tomorrow after the investigating agency said that her custodial interrogation was required to unearth the truth behind the incident.
In closed-door proceedings, the police told the court that 26-year-old Arora's custody was required to investigate whether there were other persons involved in the matter who conspired with her.
According to court sources, police said the real motive behind the act was needed to be ascertained and find out whether the woman was involved in some other cases as well. The advocate appearing for Arora, however, opposed the police custody plea and sought bail for her.
The counsel claimed that the offence committed by Arora was not serious and being a woman, she should be released.
Arora had thrown ink on Kejriwal when he was addressing a 'thanksgiving' rally at Chhatrasal Stadium on Sunday following the 'success' of his government's odd-even experiment, prompting angry reaction from AAP government which termed&nbsp;the incident as a part of 'BJP conspiracy'.
