'Eknath Shinde's son has given contract to a goon for getting me killed': Sanjay Raut

Mumbai/UNI: Shiv Sena leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut on Tuesday accused Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde's son Shrikant Shinde of giving a 'supari' (contract) to a goon to kill him.

In this regard, Raut has written a letter to state Devendra Fadanvis and the Thane police commissioner in which serious allegations were made against Shrikant Shinde by Raut.

Raut stated that with the change of government, his security was withdrawn.

"I have already informed you that during this time there have been threats from the MLAs of the current ruling party and their goons. Today I have received definite information that a goon from Thane, Raja Thakur, has been instructed by MP Shrikant Shinde to attack me and he is preparing to attack me soon," he wrote to Fadnavis.

Meanwhile Shinde group MLA Sanjay Shirsat has rejected the allegations made by Raut in the letter and said that this is only a stunt.

"Raut is currently doing stunts. Recently he claimed that Rs 2000 crore deal had taken place to give recognition to the Shinde group and allow it the party symbol. Hence,there is no truth in what he is saying," added Shirsat.
