Mumbai: Kavita Karkare,
widow of slain Maharashtra Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) chief Hemant
Karkare, Saturday slammed Congress leader Digvijay Singh for
claiming that Karkare called him hours before he was killed in the
26/11 Mumbai terrorist attack to say that right-wing groups
threatened his life.
"Pakistani terrorists killed my husband, Digvijay Singh is wrong,"
said Kavita.
"No Hindu outfit is connected with my husband's killing. Do not
link his death with threats from Hindu organisations. The
statement can mislead people," she added.
Earlier Saturday, Singh said that Hemant Karkare had spoken to him
hours before he was killed in the terrorist attack on Mumbai in
2008.
The Congress general secretary claimed that Karkare was under
threat from those opposing the Malegaon blast probe, which he was
heading as the ATS chief.
"I had spoken to Hemant Karkare only two hours before he was
killed. He had told me how his family and his own life were
constantly threatened from people who were annoyed by his
investigations in the Malegaon blasts," Singh said.
