Gujarat riots case: Trial court to decide on Modi probe

2011-09-12 136

The Supreme Court today directed a Gujarat trial court to examine the report of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) and the amicus curae's review of that report and then decide whether a case needs to be registered to investigate Mr Modi's alleged role in the 2002 case. The SIT's report had allegedly said that there was no evidence to prosecute Mr Modi; amicus curae, Raju Ramachandran, had reviewed that report and allegedly differed on several points with the SIT's findings.
