Facing a contempt plea in the Supreme Court filed by Shanti Bhushan,expelled SP leader and RS member Amar Singh launched another attack on the Bhushans on Wednesday. Terming them as PIL sniffers,he said one creates a PIL,while other comes to the rescue. It is in public (domain) that the father-son duo are PIL specialists. One creates a PIL,the other comes to the rescue. No wonder then that Shanti Bhushan got a farmhouse worth about Rs 10 crore for just Rs 35 lakh after the thorn of Noida Park reached courts, he said at a press conference on Wednesday. What I have gathered is that Shanti Bhushan has acknowledged that the plot allotments were done through a wrong process. If it is so,I wonder whether he would return that plot, he said. On Bhushan's contention that a controversy was being created to derail two cases,he said: While the hearing is already complete and the judgment is reserved in the banned tape case,the chargesheet has already been filed in the 2G case under Supreme Court monitoring. A serving minister was sent to jail while several senior people from corporate houses have been arrested (in this case). How is it then I am going to derail these case? Amar Singh also rebutted Bhushans charge that they had never interacted with him. Shanti Bhushan claimed that he never spoke with Mulayam Singh Yadav and Amar Singh. But the fact is that he appeared for us in a case pertaining to disqualification of some MLAs who had crossed over to SP. He appeared once in the Allahabad High Court on February 28,2006. In fact,he flew to Lucknow in a chartered plane arranged by me. He appeared twice, he claimed,for which fees were paid to the lawyer in cash.
