Lalit Modi's lawyer Mehmood Abdi speaks at the media conference in Mumbai.
Former Indian Premier League boss Lalit Modi today responded to the snowballing controversy over Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj helping him gain emergency travel papers in Britain. Here are the five quotes from his lawyer Mehmood Abdi:
Here are some of his top quotes:
Fugitive and offender are legal terms which can't be used as generously as the media is using. Fugitive or offender is a legal term and a court has to declare it.
Some channels have been saying Lalit's wife was not ill. Are they aware of medical advise? It is the height of irresponsibility and insensitivity
Interpol secretariat says no blue corner notice has been issued... From the day he went to England, Lalit Modi has been communicating with Enforcement Directorate and the police, so where is the need to issue a blue corner notice?
Police files show Dawood was actively following Lalit Modi... but his security was withdrawn in 2010, after which he went to the UK because security is a very private matter. They are drawing parallel between Dawood Ibrahim and Lalit Modi. They have no sense of balance.
Honourable foreign minister did not intervene, she lived up to her duty to help any Indian outside the country who is in trouble... This is a political jamboree.
