New Delhi: BJP MP Subramanian Swamy on Thursday said Congress president Sonia Gandhi and former prime minister Manmohan Singh should be summoned by the CBI on the AgustaWestland helicopter case.
"(Going by) the Italian court judgment, Sonia Gandhi, Manmohan Singh, Ahmad Patel and Oscar Fernandes should be summoned to the CBI headquarters and asked what they know about this (AgustaWestland helicopter case).
"If they speak the truth, they will have no problem. But if they tell lies, they will have to be prosecuted," Swamy said.
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Wednesday said the probe in the AgustaWestland helicopter case will focus on those named by the Italian court.

Earlier, Congress member Anand Sharma asked the Government how Subramaniam Swamy had got access to sensitive and confidential files of CBI and ED in the AgustaWestland deal.
Raising the issue through a point of order, Sharma said during the discussion yesterday, sensitive documents of CBI and ED were referred to.
The House "must know how an honourable member or rather less honourable member" was given access to sensitive and secret files, which he has refused to authenticate and place on the table of the House, he said.
