Pragya Singh Alleges Pressure to Implicate Modi, Adityanath
After being cleared in the Malegaon blast case, Pragya Singh claimed that investigators wanted her to falsely accuse PM Modi and Yogi Adityanath.
However, a past document detailing her arrest and mistreatment didn't mention them.
She also didn't bring it up in court or during her political campaign.
Some think she made the claims to gain support from the BJP leadership.
Pragya Singh accused the ATS of pressuring her to implicate PM Modi and Yogi Adityanath.
Singh's claim was made after being acquitted in the 2008 Malegaon blast case.
An affidavit from 2008, detailing her arrest and alleged torture, made no mention of Modi or Adityanath.
She also did not mention these allegations during the 17-year trial or her 2019 election campaign.
Unnamed sources suggest her statement aims to gain favor with the BJP leadership.
