Ahmedabad: The Supreme Court-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) on 13th March submitted its final report, a copy of which however was not given to main complainant Zakia Jafri. The issue was raised by her lawyer in the Metropolitan Magistrate Court No.11 today (Thursday).
Advocate Mihir Desai told the court that denying Ms Jafri a copy of the Report/Chargesheet and all documents collected in evidence now itself would be a violation of both the Supreme Court Order and also a right for fair hearing, a right given under various Statutes and under various judgements of Indian Courts.
The SIT had, after a delay of five months, filed a partial report on 8-2-2012 and then on 13-3-2012 filed all relevant documents including Amicus Curiae Raju Ramachandran’s Report.
Zakia Jafri had on 8th June 2006 filed a case charging chief minister Narendra Modi, his ministers and top officers for the Gulberg Society massacre. The SC had appointed SIT to look into the complaint.
