Earlier on Wednesday too, the Bihar DGP had tweeted expressing displeasure on the matter. He said that despite of Supreme Court being critical about quarantining of Vinay Tiwari, BMC hasn't released the officer.

माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय द्वारा ये गम्भीर टिप्पणी की गयी हैकि बिहार के IPS विनय तिवारी को मुंबई में ज़बरदस्ती कोरंटिन किया जाना ग़लत है फिर भी BMC ने उन्हें अभी तक उन्हें मुक्त नहीं किया है.वे सुप्रीम कोर्ट की भी परवाह नहीं करते! अब इसको आप क्या कहेंगे??? अफ़सोस!
