Quattrochi's death should not affect the probe: BJP

July 15, 2013 08:49

BJP leaders and those involved in pursuing the Bofors scam have said prime accused Ottavio Quattrochi's death should not result in closing the probe into where the kickbacks went and the truth should be unearthed.

"This was a big scam, a big scandal and so all aspects should be probed and it should be seen how India's money can be brought back," BJP Vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said.

Janata Party Chief Subramanian Swamy demanded that the case should be reopened and it should not matter that Quattrochi is dead, as it is important to expose others involved in the scam.
