KOCHI: MV Nikesh Kumar, head of Reporter Channel, said that Swapna Suresh and her friend Shaj Kiran tried to trap him. Nikesh said that the interest behind this will be explored and found. Nikesh came out with the response on his own channel after Swapna Suresh repeated on the media that Shaj Kiran had said that Nikesh Kumar was the tongue and voice of the Chief Minister.
"I've never met or talked to Swapna. The CM does not need a tongue from the outside. Shaj Kiran had called asking me to air the interview with Swapna. Both of them were trying to bring me to Palakkad strategically. I was not able to go there as I had an important job in Kochi. If I had gone, they would have spread the CCTV footage of my meeting with Swapna. They won't be able to get me into controversy. If Shaj had approached Swapna as a mediator of the Chief Minister, the police should investigate it. I am challenging Swapna and her lawyer to produce at least a piece of paper proving that I am the mediator," Nikesh said.
Meanwhile, Shaj Kiran revealed that Nikesh had no role in the controversy surrounding Swapna Suresh.
