AMRITSAR – After various Sikh outfits pointed fingers towards Bollywoof legend Amitabh Bachchan in the 1984 massacre of Sikhs, an “eyewitness” has come forward alleging that the actor had provoked the violent thugs in the aftermath of assassination of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
As per a release issued by Gurpatwant S. Pannun, legal adviser to ‘Sikhs for Justice’, 52-year-old Manjit Singh Saini, originally hailing from Kalu Sarai, Delhi, and at present residing in California, was present in front of the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences on October 31, 1984, when Bachchan allegedly incited a mob to target a Sikh present there.
Pannun said Saini decided to break his silence after Bachchan approached Sri Akal Takht Sahib pleading innocence.
