Anti-Sikh riots case: HC verdict on Sajjan's plea tomorrow - Indian Express

PTI : New Delhi, Sun Apr 28 2013, 13:17 hrs Justice Suresh Kait, will pronounce the verdict at 10.30 am tomorrow. (Reuters) The Delhi High Court will pronounce its verdict tomorrow on a plea of Congress leader Sajjan Kumar against a trial court order framing charges against him in a 1984 anti-Sikh riots case related to the killings of six persons. Justice Suresh Kait, who had reserved the order in December last year, will pronounce the verdict at 10.30 am tomorrow. Besides the Congress leader, co-accused Ved Prakash Pial alias Vedu Pradhan and Brahmanand Gupta had also moved the high court against framing of charges against them in the case. Complainant Sheela Kaur had filed a cross-appeal in the high court seeking to invoke the charges of criminal conspiracy against Kumar and other four accused in the case. Earlier in July 2010, a lower court had framed charges against Kumar, Brahmanand Gupta, Peru, Khushal Singh and Ved Prakash in connection with the case in which six persons were killed in Sultanpuri in anti-Sikhs riots that erupted in Delhi and elsewhere after the assassination of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on October 31, 1984. Besides charges of murder and rioting, the court had also framed charges for the offence of spreading enmity between two communities against the accused in the case. The CBI had filed two charge sheets against Kumar and others in January, 2010 in the riots cases registered in 2005 on the recommendation of Justice G T Nanavati Commission which probed the sequence of events leading to the riots.
