Noted criminal advocate Ram Jeth Malani on Thursday stated that he would not support the candidature of UPA candidate Pranab mukherjee for the Presidential elections.
Talking to media persons at a private hotel, Ram Jethmalani accused Mukherjee of supporting the emergency during Indira Gandhi’s regime and responsible for the excesses and atrocities. When his nomination was announced, it reminded me of black days during the emergency period, he said.
Stating that Pranab was ineligible to contest for the President’s post, Jethmalani described him as ‘big criminal’ who failed to bring black money stashed away abroad.
