Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Amar Singh, who is in the centre of a phone-tapping controversy, today claimed that an industrialist with "deep interests in the telecom industry" was part of the conspiracy to frame him. | |
| He said he had informed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh of the industrialist's identity. |
| |
| Singh had alleged on December 25 that intelligence personnel told him that several people, including two officials from the Prime Minister's Office, a journalist MP and Congress President Sonia Gandhi had got together to implicate him in a false case. |
| |
| Singh said he had repeatedly raised the issue, both in Parliament and with the government, through the home minister and even the prime minister. |
| |
| On all occasions, the SP leader said he was told that the government was not listening in on any leader's telephone conversation. |
