Digvijay Singh the conspiracy theorist is under question now! lol!Zee Media Bureau
New Delhi: In a development which is likely to trigger a political storm in the country, the 2007 Ajmer blast accused Bhavesh Patel has accused senior UPA ministers and Congress leaders of pressuring him to name Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat and senior leader Indresh Kumar in connection with the incident.
Reports on Wednesday said that Bhavesh Patel made this claim in a letter written to National Investigation Agency (NIA) special court.
In his letter, Patel also blamed several other UPA ministers, including Minister of State for Home RPN Singh, Coal Minister Sri Prakash Jaiswal and Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh, for trying to frame Bhagwat.
Patel is said to have made this claim in response to querries by the NIA court to clarify if he was being pressurised.
Interestingly, Patel had earlier claimed that there was no political pressure on him.
NIA sources, however, say that Bhavesh Patel was asked repeatedly by the court if he is being pressured. Patel, according to the NIA sources, had said he was not being pressured.
The NIA court has categorically rubbished the allegations made by Patel.
Congress party has also hit back, saying there is no question of anyone putting pressure on Patel into naming Indresh Kumar and the RSS chief him as the two are not named in the FIR filed by the CBI in the Ajmer blast case.
However, Patel's stunning accusations have evoked sharp reactions from the RSS. Claiming that Patel's letter is strong evidence, RSS leader Ram Madhav said, "We have been saying from the beginning that there is a conspiracy against Hindu organisations, specifically against the RSS and its leaders. We are calling for an unbiased probe."
Bhavesh Patel is one of those accused in the 2007 Ajmer Dargah bomb blast case...
