Proof Somnath Bharti is a topibaaz

Update:

The Supreme Court denied relief to former Delhi law minister Somnath Bharti after his estranged wife Lipika Mitra refused to go for mediation. Lipika told the apex court that mediation was not a possibility following which the court directed Bharti to move his bail petition to the trial court.

SC also directed the trial court to dispose Somnath Bharti's bail petition expeditiously. Later, the Dwarka Court  extended Somnath Bharti's judicial custody till October 19.

The AAP MLA, who in under arrest in a domestic violence case filed by his wife Lipika, was sent to one day judicial custody by Saket District Court on Sunday. Somnath, however, has rejected all allegations against him. Read more here.

Dear Somnath Bharti, this is Don: Is the bark worse than sound bite?

Dear Lipika & Somnath,

At the outset, as they say in this these things, I would like to state that there are no hard feelings. I've had a chance to chew on the events of the last few months (excuse the phrase, dear Lipika), and I have no choice but to confess that they have been the most exciting months of my life. Word on the street is this may be a record of sorts for Labradors (though by "street", of course I mean only the Malviya Nagar area). I've been named in letters of complaint.

Between husband and wife, I've been called the bone of contention, a phrase utterly unfair to my breed, but evidently befitting yours. The other day, my afternoon nap (which reminds me, Somnath, please fix the living room AC) was rudely interrupted with a TV news flash announcing that the Delhi Police wanted my "physical presence" for the "purpose of establishing facts in the allegations". For this, I must thank Lipika.

Revelation

I must reveal that I had to endure several minutes of human underwear advertisements to finally piece together what you, Lipika, said about me in your letter to the police.

I was so shocked, I forgot to have my bowl of afternoon tea. "He made his dog (that is, myself) attack me. While the dog attacked me, Somnath Bharti was standing and watching me getting mauled by the dog. I was bitten by the dog at multiple places in my stomach and private parts. Bharti crossed all barriers of brutality." Before venturing to write this letter to you, I was advised by the Khannas' Pomeranian Babboo two doors away that I shouldn't say too much, given your fight is now in court. (On a side note, that Pomeranian is wise beyond his years - you might consider getting one next.) Read more here.
