Police have arrested two persons, including the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s Vadodara city president, for allegedly impersonating Intelligence Bureau (IB) officers and threatening party workers over an internal party dispute.

The investigation began after AAP leader Durgesh Pathak alleged on social media that party workers in Gujarat were receiving threatening calls from individuals claiming to be IB officials.

AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal later amplified the allegation and questioned the calls, saying he had personally contacted the number.

An FIR was registered at the Anand Cyber Crime Police Station under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Information Technology Act.
