New Delhi: Congress today said the FIR filed
against Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh for alleged
financial fraud by the BSP government in Uttar Pradesh seemed
like a case of political vendetta.
"I am not aware of the details of the case but what I
have gathered is that it has been filed on a private complaint
... At the first look, it does look like a case of political
vendetta," Digvijay Singh, AICC general secretary in-charge of
UP, told reporters here.
Singh said the administration in UP had been very quick
in lodging the complaint against Amar Singh and others on
receiving the complaint.
He said there was an agency to probe money laundering
cases at the Centre and the case against Amar Singh should
have come to this agency.
The Congress leader wondered how the UP police could
probe the case.
