'Amarinder, his son has stashed over Rs 400 cr in Swiss banks'

Amritsar, Nov 11: Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal today accused state Congress chief Amarinder Singh and his son of stashing more than Rs 400 crore ill-gotten money in Swiss banks.

Addressing a press conference here, Badal said Amarinder owes an explanation to the people of Punjab that how he had amassed Rs 400 crore within five years.

Amarinder and his son Raninder Singh must explain to the public about the source of money used for purchasing a grand villa in Dubai, he demanded. Badal also accused the UPA government of trying to shield those Congress leaders and MPs who had allegedly stashed blackmoney abroad.

He demanded Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee to make public all the names of persons having illegal Swiss bank accounts as people have right to know the "looters" who have looted the tax payers hard-earned money.
