New Delhi: A doctor here yesterday rubbished reports of his involvement in the Malegaon bombing or the Abhinav Bharat group that supposedly masterminded the terror attack.

"I have no role in anything. I don't [even] know what is the ideology of Abhinav Bharat," R.P. Singh, an endocrinologist at a leading private hospital here, told news channels.

Singh acknowledged that he knew the self-styled Hindu religious leader Dayanand Pandey, who is in the custody of the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad.

Singh admitted he was present in Pandey's office in Faridabad, adjoining Delhi, on January 26 this year, when investigators believe the September 29 Malegaon bombing was planned.

But he insisted he was not aware of any planning.
