In a clear attack on the Congress, BJP chief Amit Shah called the expulsion of Aljo Joseph a 'sham'. Joseph, who is representing Michel in the court, was the legal head of Indian Youth Congress
New Delhi: After AgustaWestland middleman Christian Mitchel started singing like a canary, the BJP has upped the ante. On Monday, none less than BJP president Amit Shah highlighted this in a series of tweets. Shah said, "Does anyone know why Christian Michel passed on the details of questioning on Mrs. Gandhi to his lawyer? Did he want them to be passed on to Mrs. Gandhi herself? Why?"
Trails of the AgustaWestland Case…the SOS of Christian Michel.
Does anyone know why Christian Michel passed on the details of questioning on Mrs. Gandhi to his Lawyer?
Did he want them to be passed on to Mrs. Gandhi herself? Why?
In any case, what must be told again and again is the Congress background of Michel’s lawyer. The so called expulsion remains a SHAM. He remains the conduit between Michel and Mrs. Gandhi!
— Amit Shah (@AmitShah)In a clear attack on the Congress, Shah called the expulsion of Aljo Joseph a "sham". Joseph, who is representing Michel in the court, was the legal head of Indian Youth Congress. Embarrassed, the Congress was forced to sack him.
In national interest, Michel’s lawyer must tell us about the existence of documents of 2008, which make a reference to Mrs. Gandhi.
Evidently, the friendship between Michel and one family in India is time tested and deep.
BJP's Hindutva face and Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath held a press conference hitting out at the Congress. Yogi alleged that the name of "Mrs Gandhi" surfaced even in the courts of Italy. In an apparent dig at the Gandhi family, Yogi asked, " Who is this Mrs Gandhi that Michel is talking about?"
