'Had Balasaheb been there': Sameer Wankhede's wife writes to Uddhav Thackeray

NCB officer Sameer Wankhede's wife Kranti Wankhede has written a letter to Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray seeking justice for her husband.

The NCB officer, who is probing the Aryan Khan drug case is being attacked consistently by Maharashtra Minister and NCP leader Nawab Malik, who has levelled a serious of allegations. Malik has accused Sameer Wankhede of framing Aryan Khan in a fake case. He has also questioned Wankhede's Dalit caste certificate.

In her letter to CM Uddhav Thackeray, Kranti has sought protection from personal attacks on her family.

"We're being insulted before people every day. A woman's dignity is being toyed with in Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj' state. Had Balasaheb been here today, he wouldn't have liked it," said Wankhede.

"Balasaheb is not here today but you are. We see him in you, we trust you. I believe that you will not allow injustice to my family and me. As a Marathi, I look towards you with hopes of justice. I request you for justice," she further said in her letter, according to ANI.

She has also sought an appointment from the chief minister.

Sameer Wankhede’s sister, advocate Yasmeen, on Thursday approached the Mumbai Police and submitted a written complaint, demanding registration of an FIR against Nawab Malik.

However, so far no FIR has been registered on the basis of her complaint.
