New Delhi: In yet another salvo against the Congress and the Gandhi family, the BJP President Amit Shah lashed out at the Gandhi family for their alleged role in the Augusta Westland chopper deal.
Shah’s attack on the Congress came in after the revelation by middlemen Christen Michel.
“Does anyone know why Christian Michel passed on the details of questioning on Mrs. Gandhi to his Lawyer? Did he want them to be passed on to Mrs. Gandhi herself? Why?,” Shah asked in a tweet.

On December 29, the Enforcement Directorate had told a Delhi court that Michel was misusing his legal access by handing his lawyers notes on how he should deal with questions on a “Mrs Gandhi” and had mentioned a certain “son of the Italian lady who could be the Prime Minister”.
“Michel’s lawyer has admitted that the paper was indeed passed on to him. He thought that it was a list of medicines, which could have been transparently given in any case. We have heard of Zandu Balm and Tiger Balm but what is this ‘Family Balm’ that every middleman wants?,” Shah said.

“In any case, what must be told again and again is the Congress background of Michel’s lawyer. The so called expulsion remains a SHAM. He remains the conduit between Michel and Mrs. Gandhi,” BJP president added.
Enforcement Directorate on Saturday told Delhi court that Michel was misusing his legal access by handing his lawyers notes on how he should deal with questions on a “Mrs Gandhi” and had mentioned a certain “son of the Italian lady who could be the Prime Minister”.
