Collector's abduction: Renuka calls Bhushan USELESS!

April 24, 2012 12:33

Congress leader Renuka Chaudhary today criticised Supreme Court lawyer Prashant Bhushan for refusing to mediate for the release of Sukma District Collector Alex Paul Menon.

"He (Bhushan) is such a hopeless and useless man. This is a man who doesn''t speak with a sense of responsibility. He should understand what those families are going through whose members are trapped with the Maoists," Chaudhary told media outside parliament. "I request you (media) to not spread what he says," she added.

Maoist rebels on Saturday abducted Menon, an IAS officer of 2006 batch, from the middle of a meeting with villagers from Majhipara village in Keralapal area of the Naxal-infected district.
