Gujarat Riots- Zakia Jafri's Plea Against Clean Chit To Narendra Modi- LIVE UPDATES From Supreme Court

Rohatgi: See 353 top. He[TC] is making a comment that this lady had knowledge about Gulberg, information about other incidents like buildup and all, she got from Petitioner no.2

Rohatgi: The Court has done much more.

Rohatgi: [With respect to protest being taken as complaint] He [TC]says I will not take it as a fresh complaint. Because SC had said look into and the report was accepted by SC.

Bench: You can give a breakup of the page numbers. Broadly, we get your concern, that you have investigated and placed material before judge and he had considered it.

Rohatgi: Then, roles of individuals. For example, at 330 Shivanand Jha, APC. It is argued and analysed. [TC conclusion] He says whatever SIT had said is correct. Then, about Pandey, Tandon and Gondia.

Rohatgi: Now, PC Pandey. He [TC] says only on the basis of call details, argument of conspiracy is not made out.

Rohatgi: Then, rehabilitation of victims. This has nothing to do with SIT, but still it went into it. Again CD of Rahul Sharma comes in. Again the 3 star witnesses, One gave false register, one gave false CD and one lied about being present at the meeting of 27.02.2002

Rohatgi: Now PPs sympathetic to VHP. The SC gave power to SIT to change PP. Full power was given. 

Rohatgi: Many of these points were actually irrelevant for us. The moment a new Govt. comes there is a new panel. You can call it favouritism, but that is how it is.

Rohatgi: Then there was Gujarat bandh. This is actually irrelevant. Nothing that SIT had to do. Then harassment of officer. SIT examined which officer transferred where etc.

Rohatgi: Only one portion I’ll read. [TC says] The Court cannot direct further investigation in the said proceeding. This part is corrected by HC. There is no appeal by Govt or SIT on this - if this was correct or not. I wanted to show this.
