AAP legislator Jitender Singh Tomar claimed he got a life-threatening SMS on his cellphone
Former minister and AAP legislator Jitender Singh Tomar today claimed he received a threat to his life.
"I was sitting in the Assembly session when I received a SMS on my phone at 2.05 PM today. The sender in his message said he had not made up his mind whether he should 'stab me' or 'kill easily' adding that he could eliminate me easily," Mr Tomar told Press Trust of India.
The lawmaker claimed that he asked the sender about his whereabouts but no reply came. Later, however, a missed call came from the same number but the phone was not picked up when called back, he said.
Mr Tomar said he will lodge a complaint with the police as soon as he finds an opportunity to do so.
A senior police officer, however, said that no complaint was received from Mr Tomar but appropriate action will be taken after he approaches police.
