AY also recounted an incident that happened at a time when things had significantly picked up for both of them career-wise and family-wise. He claimed to have spotted Basktmouth at a club and approached him for a chat.
“And my dear colleague looked at me eye ball to eye ball and said: ‘I’m a beast, I don’t forgive.”
