Srinagar, Oct 6 (ANI): Lashing out at the People's Democratic Party (PDP) for holding Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah responsible for the custodial death of National Conference (NC) worker, Union Minister Farooq Abdullah on Thursday termed the whole controversy as a political stunt.
Talking to reporters here, Abdullah said: "We have nothing to hide. It is a political stunt. They (PDP) want power that is why they are leveling charges against us."
They don't want the NC-Congress government to stay. They want the National Conference to disappear. We are running a coalition government in the state but the attack has only been on our party, not the Congress," he added
Defending his son, Faqooq said: "It was Omar, who on his own, ordered a judicial inquiry. Truth will come out in the judicial inquiry."
Omar is facing a political storm over the death of National Conference (NC) worker Syed Mohammad Yousuf, who died allegedly in police custody after two fellow party workers had accused him of taking Rs 1.18 crore from them for getting them berths in the Legislative Council.
According to the government version, the accused was summoned to the camp office of the chief minister where he was confronted with the allegation about taking money. (ANI)
