Along with this, Jai Anant Dehadrai has also claimed that an attempt was made to force him to withdraw his complaint and he was threatened with harm to his reputation if he did not agree.
Dehadrai was reportedly in a relationship with the Trinamool MP and since their separation, the two are reportedly not on good terms. One reason for the rift between them is their pet dog of Rottweiler breed named Henry. Both have accused each other of ‘stealing’ Henry and their custody battle is being fought in court. The dog is currently with Moitra.
In a letter written to the Police Commissioner on Saturday, Dehadrai said that he is writing under “extremely disturbing circumstances”. There was a fear of threat to life because of his October 14 complaint against Moitra and others, which he had submitted to the CBI and BJP MP Nishikant Dubey.
The lawyer alleged that on Thursday a direct attempt was made to pressure him to withdraw the complaint.
He wrote in his complaint, “If I did not agree, threats were made to harm my reputation. The most important demand was that I would have to unconditionally withdraw both the complaints in which I had filed a national security complaint against Moitra and others. “And very serious allegations have been made related to corruption. It was said that if I agreed to withdraw my complaints, Moitra would return my pet Rottweiler Henry to me.”
‘Tried to forcibly acquire Henry by making fake complaints’
Along with this, Dehadrai said that his concern is serious because the Trinamool MP has a “history of misusing his influence and political influence to intimidate and threaten his opponents”. He claimed that Moitra had tried to possess Henry by force by filing two “fake” complaints against him at Delhi’s Barakhamba Road police station.
Moitra accused of putting pressure on policeman also
The lawyer alleged that Moitra put pressure on the police officer to “intimidate him into giving up the legitimate ownership of Henry”. He claimed that the policeman was innocent as he was being “threatened” by the Trinamool MP. Also said that he should clarify his role.
Complaint was withdrawn as soon as it was sent to Henry: Dehadrai
He said, “When I gave up and sent Henry to Moitra, Moitra, signing a letter dated 04.10.2023, not only unconditionally withdrew her so-called complaints against me, but also categorically told the police that Asked not to take any action against me. “Thus, given the extremely dangerous and suspicious background of Moitra and her associates, I fear a threat to my life.”
‘Can try to stop him from appearing’
The Supreme Court lawyer expressed apprehension that he fears that an attempt may be made to stop him from appearing before the investigating agencies along with the Lok Sabha Ethics Committee on October 26. In support of his claim, he said that he had received several “strange messages” on his phone from unknown numbers as well as three phone calls from a “no caller ID” number on Friday.
‘I have very sensitive evidence regarding the case’
He wrote in his letter, “Looking at the strange incidents that are happening, I am afraid for my chamber colleagues and myself. Since I have extremely sensitive evidence and material related to this case, there is every possibility that an attempt may be made to either destroy this material or to extract it from me by threatening physical harm. Therefore, I humbly request you to assess the relevant threats and provide adequate security as you deem appropriate.
