Don’t regret act, can repeat assault: Prashant Bhushan’s attacker


New Delhi: Tejinder Pal Singh Bagga, who along with two others attacked senior Supreme Court lawyer and Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan inside his chamber, threatened to repeat the act.
Showing no remorse for his shocking act, Bagga told a television news channel that he was angered by Bhushan’s remark advocating a referendum in Jammu and Kashmir and that he could again launch an assault on the senior lawyer.
Bagga and his aide Vishnu Gupta were arrested by Delhi Police on Thursday morning from near Baba Kharak Singh Marg. The third attacker, Inder Verma, was held minutes after the trio entered Bhushan’s Supreme Court chamber and thrashed him on Wednesday.
Bagga told the channel that he supports Anna Hazare’s war on corruption but added that he would never tolerate people talking about bifurcation of Kashmir or speaking in favour of Afzal Guru or Ajmal Kasab.
Responding to a question, Bagga admitted that he was an active member of BJP Yuva Morcha but added that he left the organisation two years ago due to basic ideological differences.
