Senior AAP leader and Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Singh on Tuesday lash🧔ed out at Delhi Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena and accused him of misl🉐eading the judiciary in the 2002 Sabarmati Ashram assault case.
Saxena🌸 "does not des✃erve" to hold the position of a lieutenant governor, Singh said at a press conference here.
He alleged that Saxena has written a &qu💧ot;misl𓂃eading letter" to the court and refused to appear before it for trial in the case.
"There are charges against Saxena for inciting violence at Sabarmati Ashram around 21 years ago. The investigation is still going on and he has been asked to appear before the court on March 9. The LG refused to do so and wrote a m💛isleading letter to the court instead," the AAP leader alleged.
There🔜 was no immediate reaction from Saxena on the matter.
Saxena has approached a co🍃urt in Ahmedabad with a request to keep a criminal trial against him in abeyance till he holds the 🔜top post that offers him immunity under the Constitution in the case of the alleged attack on social activist Medha Patkar in 2002.
Saxena and three oth♛ers were booked for rioting, assault, wrongful restraint, criminal intimidation and intentional insultꦰ in connection with the 21-year-old case.
