An email,dated November 25,2011,details a conversation between arms dealer Abhishek Vermas wife Anca Neacsu and a joint secretary with the Ministry of Home Affairs where the latter is allegedly giving assurance to Anca and US-based company Sig Sauer. On Tuesday,Union Home Secretary R K Singh summoned the joint secretary who had allegedly helped Verma. Singh also held a meeting with CBI Director Ranjit Sinha seeking his view regarding fresh evidence received from the US-based former escrow fund manager of Verma,Edmond Allen.
