Gujarat Riots: Zakia Jafri's Plea Against Clean Chit To Narendra Modi- Supreme Court Hearing: LIVE UPDATES
Mr. Sibal reads out about the provocative behaviour and mobilisation in that regard
Sibal: Let me just quickly read pgA of Vol II. Provocative behaviour. This was not looked into by the Mag. and HC.
Bench: Shouldn't you first take us what is not there in the closure report.
Bench: Chronology would be what was not dealt with by SIT, Magistrate and then HC.
Bench: Then your main hearing would be withholding of evidence.
Sibal: I take that point. We'll do that.
Sibal: Now if your lordship goes to the volume itself. I'll quickly go through it.
Bench: Phone calls are also part of evidence.
Sibal: With great respect not so. Pandey had withheld call records.
Sibal: Next Tehelka transcript on mass mobilisation, then phone call record, available but not investigated.
Bench: Tehelka should not be separate heading.
Sibal: We will provide revise chart.
Sibal: Moving on to Vol II. First heading - Mass mobilisation and hate speech on 27.02.2002. Second heading - Second component of conspiracy - Inaction of policeman and other public officers. Third heading - Attack start much before bodies reached Ahmedabad.
Sibal: We need not quite frankly read this, they have all denied.
Sibal: All these statements were recorded after that. Ashish's statement is before.Khetan's statement is on 27.08.2009.
Bench: Rest after 01.10.2009?
Sibal: Yes, all afterwards. All this part of the 188 pg CBI document.
Sibal: Your lordships might note four dates.
CBI authentication report - 08.05.2009;
Forwarded to NHRC - 13.05.2009;
NHRC decided to forward copy to SIT, Gandhinagar - 22.09.2009;
Forwarded - 01.10.2009.
They had it from that date.
Bench: Publication in Tehelka 03.11.2007.
Bench: We are not on truthfulness of the statements.
Sibal: I am saying why did the SIT not investigated this.
Bench: We have noted that, but too much emphasis might not be given on these.
