“Balasaheb Thackeray wanted singer Sonu Nigam dead,” alleged former Maharashtra Chief Minister Narayan Rane’s son Nilesh Rane against late Shiv Sena chief. Rane made one of the sensational claims and alleged that Balasaheb had hatched a plot to kill Bollywood's famous singer Sonu Nigam.

"Balasaheb wanted to get Sonu Nigam killed. The attempt was made by Shiv Sainiks at the orders of Balasaheb. Do not force me to tell you what was the relationship between the Thackeray family and Sonu Nigam," alleged Nilesh Rane.


Nilesh Rane also alleged that Thackeray was responsible for Shiv Sena leader Anand Dighe’s death, reports ABP Majha. Notably, Dighe’s death was made to resemble during treatment in a hospital, Nilesh Rane claims according to a report in Loksatta.

He added: "Who hatched the plot to murder Anand Dighe? I will tell all the things during public meetings. But do not force me to do this."

According to the same reports, Nilesh alleges two Shiv Sainiks were extremely upset over Dighe's fate and that Thackeray senior allegedly ordered that they are sent the same way.

"We have never said anything wrong about Balasaheb while in politics. But when somebody is making filthy allegations against my father, then I have to reveal to you something about Balasaheb too," said Nilesh Rane while hitting out at Shiv Sena.

Rane was referring to a challenge that Shiv Sena’s Vinayak Raut seems to throw at the Ranes while speaking at Shiv Sena meet at Ratnagiri. "We have never said anything wrong about Balasaheb while in politics. But when somebody is making filthy allegations against my father, then I have to reveal to you something about Balasaheb too," said Nilesh Rane while hitting out at Shiv Sena.
