New Delhi: Dismissing as "total rubbish" the Volcker panel report which mentions his father and External Affairs Minister Natwar Singh as a "beneficiary" of Iraq's oil-for-food programme, Congress MLA Jagat Singh on Wednesday night said the owner of an Indian company which had allegedly paid surcharge to a Swiss firm to import oil from Iraq was his friend. Jagat Singh told NDTV that Andleep Sehgal, owner of Hamdaan Exports which had allegedly paid surcharge on behalf of Swiss company Masefield AG for the oil import, was his friend but made it clear "that does not make my privy to his business dealings". He also said the Volcker committee had not sought any reaction from his father. "You can make any allegation against anybody ... but you have to substantiate. The report has talked about my father being a `non-contractual beneficiary'. But what exactly does that mean ... They have kept it open-ended," Jagat Singh said. — PTI
