A coconut seller allegedly threatened Congress leader and former international wrestler Razia Bano with a knife during a parking dispute in Delhi's Dwarka area, according to officials.

The incident, which occurred on July 19, was reported to the Bindapur police station. Razia Bano, currently serving as the women's district Congress president in Haryana's Nuh, was identified as the victim. Her husband is a head constable in the Haryana Police.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka), Ankit Singh, stated that a PCR call was received concerning a man named Ankit, 20, who allegedly argued with Bano and brandished a knife used for cutting coconuts. The argument started after Bano parked her scooty near Ankit's coconut cart. While no physical altercation ensued, preventive legal measures were taken against the accused.
