New Delhi: Stating that he attended the EVM hackathon in London in his personal capacity, Congress leader Kapil Sibal on Tuesday called for a probe into the allegations made by a "cyber expert" including the hacking of EVMs for the sake of free and fair elections.

With Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad accusing the Congress of sponsoring the London event where US-based self-claimed cyber expert Syed Shuja made several sensational claims, Sibal said the BJP government should focus on verifying the allegations instead of making wild accusations against the Congress.
