Gujarat Riots- Zakia Jafri's Plea Against Clean Chit To Narendra Modi-LIVE UPDATES
Sibal: Then they(SIT) talk about Nambi Narayan, which is extraneous to these proceedings. Then they(SIT) rely on Nanavati Commission, on which I have already submitted.
Sibal: Para 33. Sting of Arvind Pandeya. He(SIT) says he was only PP before Nanavati Commission. He (Arvind) said he was collaborating with defence. Now, Para 38. In closure they(SIT) said Rahul Sharma did his job, now they are criticising him.
Sibal: The other person they deal with is Haresh Bhatt. His testimony does not only relate to his presence in Ahmedabad. This is again revealed first time before this Court.
Sibal: He(SIT) tries to prove falsity by referring to Babu Bajrangi. Babu Bajrangi on the basis of this very tape has been convicted. He(SIT) cannot now say that it is false. This has been said for the first time before SC, never before Mag, never before HC.
Sibal: Kindly see para 26. It is said sting is not part of the complaint. Then Milords, para 31. (SIT) Says that ex facie false claims made in tapes make them unreliable.
Sibal: In the second note, now. Para 10, Milords. No parading of dead bodies. Neither Mag’s judgment, nor HC judgment show any allegation that I have raised about parading of bodies from Godhra to Ahmedabad. Parading was in the procession to funeral.
Sibal: We do not have the translation. We will give the translation.
Bench: In that Mamtaldar thing, is there acknowledgment of anyone taking the body?
Sibal: Yes
Bench: Let us see that once...There is no acknowledgement. What does this letter say?
Sibal: One or two more things from the note. Final note part 1. List of dates by SIT. A letter was written by Mamlatdar, that one. Over the page, at 1pm CM took decision to call the army. So, decision to call army was taken on 1pm. This is their notes.
Sibal: The expunged remarked about Teesta Setalvad is in (2004) 10 SCC 88.
