Alok Verma dismisses media report that claimed he wrote to prez alleging 'political witch-hunt'

Former CBI chief Alok Verma on Thursday dismissed a media report that claimed he wrote a letter to the president alleging "political witch-hunt" in a probe against him and termed it a "deliberate mischief" by the news channel.

In a statement, Verma, who was removed from the position of CBI director by the government, said, "The channel has a fabricated account of content from a purported letter which is not written by me."
