Azam Khan hits out at Amar over tapes issue

Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan expressed surprise over Lok Manch president Amar Singh’s attempt to prevent media from revealing the contents of the tapes carrying his conversations with some film stars and corporate lobbyist Niira Radia.

“There happens to be something extremely objectionable in the tapes otherwise Singh would not have obtained stay from the Supreme Court on publication of such conversations,” Khan said.

“We have CD’s of those conversations and if allowed by the court we can prove that characterless persons have entered politics,” he said.

People are keen to know about the characters of Singh and former actress Jaya Prada who were together and held talks from time to time,he said.

Khan said he was ready to face a court of law if charges levelled against Singh and Jay Prada were proved baseless.
