Nagpur: A sensational revelation in Judge Loya matter has come to light. Suryakant alias Suraj Lolge, who first filed a petition in Judge Loya death case, has said that he was working under the directives of RSS Sarkaryawah Bhaiyyaji Joshi, the Number 2 in RSS hierarchy. Suraj says he had never said about withdrawing the petition at any cost. With this revelation, Suraj also hinted at receiving money regularly from RSS.
