Investigations have exposed that the BNP candidate for Soho, Darren John Allen, claimed to be nominated by Daljit Singh Dodd. When contacted, Mr Dodd strongly denied being a nominee and said that he had only signed a petition against a further mosque being built in the area. Mr Dodd was outraged by details being used for this purpose and said he is prepared to testify should matters go to court.
