Mumbai, May 22 (IBNS): Maharashtra Minister Eknath Khadse has rubbished charges that he had received calls from underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.
Speaking to media, he said, "The charges are completely baseless. My questions is, how did they find out Dawood's number? And if they have found his number, they should have gone to the police."
 
Khadse said he also has a written statement from his cellphone carrier where it is stated that he has not received any international calls in the last one year.
 
He also has the backing of the police.
 
"Our initial analysis of the cellphone records indicated there have been neither incoming nor outgoing calls on the minister's number to that of the fugitive (Dawood) during the entire period of September 2015 to April 2016," senior police officer Atul Chandra Kulkarni said.
 
AAP spokesperson Preeti Sharma Menon during a press conference in Mumbai had accused Khadse of having alleged links with Dawood over phone.
 
"Eknath Khadse lied about his phone being out of service. His number received several calls from Dawood Ibrahim's wife Mehjabeen Shaikh's number between September 4 2015 to April 5, 2016," she had said.
