New Delhi, October 18: Delhi Assembly Speaker Ram Niwas Goel, his son  has been sentenced to six months jail along with a fine for Rs 1,000 each by Delhi's Rouse Avenue court for rioting and causing hurt at the house of a realtor in an East Delhi colony in 2015 under Section 448 of the India Penal Code 

The case pertains to an incident on February 6, 2015 when AAP’s Shahdara MLA Goel and his supporters had allegedly raided one of the houses of a local builder in Delhi's Vivek Vihar. Manish Ghai, the builder, had alleged in the FIR that Goel raided his property accusing him of stashing liquor, blankets and other stuff for distribution ahead of the assembly polls.

The builder alleged that several items including almirah, drawers, window panes, and mirrors in the house were broken & alleged that labourers who were staying at the house at the time of the incident were physically assaulted by AAP leaders. 

The chargesheet, filed before a chief metropolitan magistrate in September 2017, had named seven persons as accused in the case accusing them of rioting, trespassing, causing mischief and voluntarily causing hurt.
