The SC has dismissed a petition filed by Noida-based politician Srikant Tyagi, who was arrested in August last year for allegedly assaulting a woman in a Noida society, seeking police protection.


Tyagi had come to the limelight after his video in which he was purportedly seen abusing and assaulting a woman resident of his society in Noida went viral on social media. The woman had allegedly objected to the plantation of trees by Tyagi on the premises of Grand Omaxe society in Sector 93B, Noida.


Tyagi was booked for assaulting and abusing the woman. The top court was hearing an appeal filed by the politician challenging July 4 judgment of the high court which had declined his plea saying that “a person who has chosen violence and does not value human life, has no right to plead that the state should take special measures to protect his life from rivals”.
