Don’t misquote me. It creates many misunderstandings.”“It isn’t possible for me to hold a press conference and say something but I can ask questions to lawyers during hearing of a case in the courtroom.“If anyone doesn’t know the background and purpose of the question, it may create misunderstanding and that’s why be careful about this,” he added.
