Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvisaid that in 2004 during the NDA regime, the Delhi High Courthad quashed charges against Quattrocchi and the government of the day had not filed any appeal against that ruling.
“I don’t understand why Congress should react to the death of somebody who has been a ghost created by BJP. Somebody has died, his family deserves condolences,” Singhvi told a news channel.
BJP spokesperson Prakash Javadekarrejected the charge. “The ghost was not created by BJP but by
