BJP leader Kirit Somaiya, accused of misappropriation of over Rs 57 crore raised to save the decommissioned naval aircraft carrier Vikrant, on Tuesday refuted the charge against him and said he will approach the Bombay High Court in the matter.
Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut claimed that BJP leader Kirit Somaiya and his son Neil Somaiya, "who committed a scam" under the pretext of saving decommissioned aircraft carrier Vikrant, may escape from country.
A special court on Monday rejected the anticipatory bail application of Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kirit Somaiya in a case related to alleged siphoning off funds collected to restore INS Vikrant.
