Shoe thrower close to Gandhi family: IAC
3 Nov 2012 9:09 AM IST
India Against Corruption on Friday claimed that a man who threw a shoe at Arvind Kejriwal two days ago is close to Gandhi family.
Releasing photographs of Jagdish Sharma with Sonia Gandhi and Robert Vadra, the IAC said, ‘he seems to be a close aide of Gandhi family. Has the Nehru-Gandhi family descended to Khurshid’s level where they would send goons to disrupt our meeting?
‘In such circumstances, any attack on IAC activists would have to be presumed to be at the behest of Congress if unless the contrary is proved,’ an IAC statement said.
Sharma and two others had disrupted a press confer of Kejriwal and Prashant Bhushan on 31 October.
Sharma, on his part, admitted that he staged the protest at Kejriwal’s press conference but said he was not close Gandhi family.
‘There are many pictures of many workers like the one which has been shown. This does not mean that they had asked me to carry out. This was my own reaction as a common man.
