Senior Advocate Adish Aggarwala has claimed that former Vice President Hamid Ansari had asked him to invite Pakistani journalist and alleged spy Nusrat Mirza to a seminar on terrorism in 2010, but he had refused.

“I was asked by office of Hamid Ansari to invite Nusrat Mirza, I did not. After I refused to invite Nusrat Mirza, the former V-P only came to the event for 20 minutes,” Aggarwala told India Today.
