New Delhi, July 22: With two arrested in the cash-for-vote controversy pointing their fingers towards him, Rajya Sabha MP Amar Singh will appear before Delhi Police Crime Branch on Friday for questioning.
The police may also call Samajwadi Party MP Reoti Raman Singh and BJP MP Ashok Argal to know more on the payment of bribe to secure vote of BJP MPs to save the UPA-1 government during the confidence vote on July 22, 2008.
Yet another person who is likely to be quizzed is Sudheendra Kulkarni, BJP leader L K Advani’s former aide, who allegedly was behind the sting operation to trap the bribe-givers.
The grilling of Amar Singh will take place in the backdrop of his former aide Sanjiv Saxena and alleged middleman Sohail Hindustani reportedly informing the police that the former SP leader asked them to pay Rs 1 crore to the BJP MPs.
