Imphal, January 16, 2012:
MPP candidate in Heirok AC N Sovakiran has clarified that he had nothing to do with the bomb attack at the residence of rival Congress candidate M Oken.
Speaking to media persons at MPP office today, Sovakiran remarked that the police allegation smacked of half-hearted investigation and partial attitude.
Flatly rejecting the allegation about his involvement in the bomb attack at the residence of M Oken as baseless, Sovakiran asserted that M Totomsana who filed his nomination papers as independent candidate but was later rejected during scrutiny was a close relative of Oken.
He said that the allegation seemed to have been guided by a sinister design to assassinate his political career.
"Totomsana never took my Bolero jeep nor did we ever meet", Sovakiran asserted.
