New Delhi, Mar 21 (PTI): A relative of Soni Sori today alleged Bastar police is "threatening and harassing" the AAP leader's family in the garb of probing the recent attack on her and sought President Pranab Mukherjee's intervention into the matter.
Addressing a press conference here, Sori's nephew and activist Lingaram Kodopi accused the police of "coercion" claiming that Sori's relatives are being picked up randomly and being forced to give statement that the attack on her was "orchestrated" by her to gain sympathy.
"What is happening in the name of investigation is harassment and the police are trying to frame us. Police are forcing us to state that the attack on her was either the result of some personal dispute or orchestrated by herself in order to gain sympathy," he claimed.
