Shortly after the CCTV footage showed Lamba hurling things in the sweet shop, she said that the footage was of the events that happened 'after' she had been attacked.
Even AAP leader Ashutosh sided with Lamba saying that her "reaction was natural" and was a "reaction to police inaction on an alleged drugs racket."
The Delhi Police has filed case of trespass against Lamba.
