[Mumbai,New Delhi] Lalit Modi [Through His Lawyer]Objects to Being Called an Offender And Attacks Congress for Vendetta hounding
Defending Lalit Modi to the hilt, his lawyer Mehmood M Abdi today took serious objecton to calling the former IPL commissioner an “offender” since no court of law has declared him so.
Lashing out at those using terms like “fugitive” and “offender” to describe Lalit Modi, he told a press meet that these were legal terms and can not be used too “loosely”.
He said.”It has to be decided by law. Which court has decided that Lalit Modi as offender and fugitive? He stays within knowledge of everyone in the United Kingdom,”
Stating that no blue corner notice was ever issued against Lalit Modi, he said “non-issues have been blown out of proportion.”
Defending Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj, he said she had done only her duty and sought to know how could some one be blamed for intervening on humanitarian grounds.
Seeking to turn the tables on Congress, he said Lalit Modi’s passport case was argued in UPA’s period and hence there is no conflict of interest though the final order came after the government change (last year).
Abdi claimed that in an RTI reply received on June 2010, it was said that Dawood Ibrahim group was monitoring the movement of Lalit Modi and were also following his daughter.

In the eye of a storm, former IPL boss Lalit Modi today declared a full-blown “war” against his detractors, warning them of sensational disclosures saying it was his “turn to get everything out”.
Naming a number of senior UPA ministers, Modi in a series of tweets claimed his disclosures, which he termed as “bombshells”, would implicate the “erstwhile PMO”.
He said in a tweet”Congress party should be watching this press conference.
So should all who have jumped up and down in last few years,” .
“Lastly before I board another flight to another beautiful destination. This is war. So bring it on. I choose to lose a battle to win a war,” a combative Modi, who is based in London, said in another tweet.
Apparently referring to Opposition’s demand for Swaraj’s resignation, he said “wrong people resignations are being asked. I can assure u now the storm is about to hit.
He also asked the UK government to look out for his disclosures “As there is lots of Q u will have to answer to media I can assure u.”
He warned of disclosing “Secret emails between govts exchanged. Lying to courts”.
