“They never let me read the statements dated 6th. They just kept scrolling the text speedily, then asked me to sign. My lawyer today told me that in ED’s statement to the court, they claim I accompanied Sivasankar to UAE in October to negotiate finances for CM. In fact, they had been coercing me to tell such tale in exchange for immunity - something I would never do whatsoever. They harassed me with threats that they would come back to jail. “
The audio clip is timed 36 seconds - the authenticity of which is to be yet verified.
