When the couple were trying to enter, they were stopped and overpowered by the security personnel present there. Later, the Delhi Police arrested the duo and registered an FIR against them under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code.

Sources said that the couple was thoroughly questioned by several security agencies so that a possibility of any other conspiracy could be ruled out. “We have registered a case and further probe is on,” the source added.
