Tejasvi threatens to file defamation suit if Nitish does not apologize for levelling murder charges against him

Tejasvi threatens to file defamation suit if Nitish does not apologize for levelling murder charges against him

Patna, Oct 8 (UNI) Leader of the opposition Tejasvi Prasad Yadav today threatened Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to file defamation suit against him if he did not tender an apology for levelling murder charges against him in connection with killing of dalit leader Shakti Malik in Purnea few days back.
Mr Yadav told media persons here that he had been Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar for more than one and half year but no charges were levelled against him. JD(U) national president and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had levelled murder charge against him in connection with killing of dalit leader Shakti Malik of Purnea, he said adding that there was not truth in it and Purnea police had come out with clean chit for him.
Mr Yadav said, Mr Kumar should tender public apology for false charges levelled against him. Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi was in habit of levelling false charges and he had accused his elder brother Tej Pratap Yadav in soil scam but nothing had come out so far despite the fact that Mr Modi was forest minister of the state. The phone call threatening Shakti Malik, was made from the guest house of Forest Department and it should also be looked into who was behind making such call, he stressed.
