Harmail Singh Tohra, son-in-law of the late Gurcharan Singh Tohra, who has joined AAP, today refuted allegations levelled by rebel party MP Dharamvira Gandhi that he had played a role in organising assault on him during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

He, however, admitted that he had unintentionally honoured Gandhi’s assailant as the accused stepped out of the Patiala Central Jail, Tohra said he would tender an apology to Gandhi and AAP for his act.

“I had no role in that incident. How can I conspire against Gandhi? After all he treated my father at one point of time,” Tohra said.

The matter came to light after senior AAP leader Kanwar Sandhu today cited this incident and expressed his reservations on Tohra’s entry into AAP.

“Sandhu could have asked me details of that incident before going public. But now I have apprised him of the details, the matter stands resolved,” Tohra said.
