Police harassed Bachchan, favoured Raj

Azmi claimed Bachchan was forced to withdraw a case of attack on his bungalow here during the anti-north Indian campaign led by the Raj's party.

Bachchan's security staff was harassed by police. They were called 20 times in the police station despite the fact that the incident of bottle-throwing at Bachchan's bungalow was captured by security cameras, he claimed.

In the same manner, SP leader Amar Singh was also asked to withdraw his complaint. Singh had received a threatening call from an unknown person, Azmi claimed.

Police have no right to judge the case and force Singh to withdraw complaint. However, the same police department is "turning a blind eye" towards Raj and his party's "anti-social activities", he said.

Azmi also criticised Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh for "making statement against migrants".
