Rahul hits out at NIA chief, says Davinder Singh issue is 'as good as dead'
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday (January 17) alleged that the best way to ‘silence’ Jammu and Kashmir DSP Davinder Singh was to hand over the investigation to NIA chief Y C Modi, under whose care the case will be ‘as good as dead’.
The Union Home Ministry on Thursday (January 17) asked the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to start the process of probing arrested Davinder Singh, who was caught for allegedly ferrying two terrorists on January 11.
Training his guns on the National Investigation Agency chief, Gandhi said he had earlier investigated the Gujarat riots and the Harem Pandya assassination cases.
