Tytler got clean chit in anti-Sikh riots case after meeting with Manmohan : Arms dealer alleges

New Delhi: Alleged arms dealer Abhishek Verma has claimed that 1984 anti-Sikh riots accused Jagdish Tytler told him that he got a clean chit from the CBI after he met former prime minister Manmohan Singh in 2008.

Media reports quoted Verma as claiming that Tytler had told him that a deal was struck to pay a hefty amount to a riots case witness.

Verma told CBI on Wednesday  that the conversation between him and Tytler took place when they were visiting the farmhouse of another Congress leader, Gopal Kanda, in August 2008.

SGPC chief Avtar Singh Makkhar said, "I don't think anything is left on the case of Jagdish Tytler. All the evidences are there then why CBI is not taking action against him. I think it should be inquired. If it has taken place then it should be revealed."
