Bhopal: Congress leader Digvijay Singh and slain police officer Hemant Karkare did talk
just before the Mumbai terrorist attack, sources in the Bharat
Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) here said Monday.
The sources said there was proof to back the claim by the former
Madhya Pradesh chief minister that had ignited a huge row.
The sources said a call was made from number 9425015461 to
Karkare's number Nov 26, the day of the Mumbai terror attack.
The post-paid mobile number had been issued on behalf of the
Madhya Pradesh Congress Committee and was being used by Digvijay
Singh, a general secretary of the Congress.
The BSNL has provided the call details to Digvijay Singh, as he
has claimed, the sources said.
The sources spoke in response to a claim by Viswa Hindu Parishad
leader B.L. Tiwari that there were no telephone calls between
Digvijay Singh and Karkare Nov 26, 2008.
Digvijay Singh had claimed that hours before Karkare was
assassinated, he told (Singh) that he feared threats to his life
from Hindu extremist organisations.
The remark created a storm. The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP)
refuted the claim. Mumbai Police also said there were no phone
calls between Karkare and the Congress leader on that day.
