The matter relates to the investigations in the IPL match-fixing case.
The BJP leader also said the home minister regularly interfered in Delhi Police’s work and prevented the interrogation of the particular businessman. ‘Shinde prevented Delhi Police from interrogating a businessman in the IPL match-fixing case. There is even no assurance from the FBI on Dawood. I was present at that conference with Shinde, he is lying,’ said Singh while speaking to
a news channel.
‘The staff at Shinde’s residence would regularly send chits with names of people who should be posted as SHOs and I heard this was done in lieu of money,’ the former bureaucrat added. This revelation comes a day after BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi lashed out at the home minister for playing vote-bank politics over his proposal to state governments to review terror cases against members of the minority community.
Singh had earlier given an interview in which he said there were quarrels between him and the home minister, a claim that Shinde didn’t deny but said his criticism of the bureaucrat had been warranted. Shinde had on Friday slammed Singh saying, ‘One needs to run administration very well and if anybody fails to do his duty, I am bound to take action against him in the capacity of home minister.’ ‘I have to scold police and secretary and anybody who fails to do his duty,’ Shinde had said.
