Anil Deshmukh threatens to sue ex-Mumbai top cop Param Bir Singh for levying allegations against him

Challenging the former Mumbai top cop Param Bir SIngh to prove his allegations, Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh said he is filing a defamation suit against him.

"Param Bir Singh has made these false allegations to save himself. If Parambir Singh says that Sachin Waze met Param Bir Singh in February and told him all this, then why didn't he tell him at the same time. Why are so many days quiet?

"After realizing that we could get into trouble in the explosives case, Param Bir Singh has tried to blackmail the government by making such false allegations," Deshmukh asserted.

Deshmukh further said in his statement that it is a conspiracy hatched by Param Bir Singh to "derail the investigation into the explosives case [Ambani bomb scare case] and the suspicious death of Mansukh Hiren'. "The Chief Minister should conduct an impartial inquiry into the allegations made by Param Bir Singh[sic]," he said.
