Bengaluru, June 1: “Some people have jealous on me. So, they wanted to control me through CBI. CBI officials have been torturing the local officials to name MP DK Suresh”, former minister DK Shivakumar alleged.
Speaking to reporters here on Friday, he said that “the CBI officials have been forcing the local officials to admit the role of MP DK Suresh in exchanging money after demonitisation. We have come from a village and I don’t know why these people are targeting us. I am a chess player and I know how to checkmate the opponent. More strong, more enemies and less strong, less enemies. Same thing happened to me. They love me more. So, they have targeted me”, he alleged.
“The CBI officials have interrogated our personal secretaries and relatives several times. Moreover, the CBI officials have been forcing our relatives and personal secretaries to accept that Rs 10 lakh is belonging to DK Suresh. But both of us have not done any mistake”, he said.
I am a common man
“Don’t ever compare me with Revanna. It is not true that both I and Revanna are fighting for Energy portfolio. They are the sons of a big family. I am a common man. If the fruit is on the tree even after ripening, people will throw stones at it. If you are good looking, everyone looks at you. I have not applied for anything. I am from Congress party. Don’t compare me with Revanna. I don’t need his relationship. Let Revanna keep all portfolios and become Chief Minister. His part is different and mine is different”, he said.
“Both Congress and JDS have come together to form the government. Both of us work together. If I am required, Congress would retain me. Time will tell everything”, he said.
