VVIP chopper scam: BJP MP Kirit Somaiya trains guns on Rahul Gandhi, aide; allegations denied

Training his guns on Rahul Gandhi, a BJP MP has asked CBI and ED to "check" his links with a real estate developer allegedly involved in the CWG scam and also the alleged connections of a political aide of the Congress vice president with a middleman in the AgustaWestland deal. 

Kirit Somaiya said this in a letter to the chiefs of the Central Bureau of Investigation(CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate(ED). 

Kanishka Singh, who is Rahul's aide, rejected as entirely baseless, false and with an ulterior political motive the allegations levelled by Somaiya against him.

Referring to his earlier letters to the agencies, Somaiya said Guido Haschke, an alleged middleman in the chopper deal, is common in both the scams and that he is linked to Christian Michel, an accused in the VVIP choppers scam. "I would request you to check the cross connectivity and do the needful," he said.
