Refusing yet again to give a voice sample in a case of threatening an IPS officer, Samajwadi Party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav has finally admitted that it was his voice in the clip submitted by IPS officer Amitabh Thakur, who had accused the former CM of intimidating him over the phone in 2015.

CO Bazarkhala Anil Kumar Yadav, who is heading the five-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) set up on the court order earlier this year, said he had already submitted his report to the court in which Mulayam Singh Yadav has once again refused to give his voice sample, but has admitted that it was his voice in the clip.

“Investigation is on. The court will finally decide,” said the SIT head while responding to a question about the implication of the senior Yadav’s admission.

The matter dates back to July 10, 2015, when the 1992-batch IPS officer, Amitabh Thakur, had lodged a case of criminal intimidation against Mulayam Singh Yadav for allegedly threatening him over the phone.

The 2 minute 10 second conversation between the IPS officer and the SP leader is heard asking Thakur to “mend his ways” or face a repeat of an incident in 2006. The tape had gone viral on the social media.

In his complaint, Thakur had recalled the 2006 incident when he was posted as Superintendent of Police at Jasrana in Firozabad district. Thakur had complained that he had been assaulted by the local SP MLA and his henchmen at a public function in the presence of Mulayam and his clan for reportedly not catering to the undue demands of the MLA who was a close associate of Yadav.
