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

Sibal : There were two ministers at the Ahmedabad city control room...

Sibal : They (SIT) never took the statements of the NHRC, they never took the statements of the Citizens Tribunal, they never took the statements of women organizations. And all of them had indicted the police!

'I don't think SIT even maintained a case diary' - Sibal.

"No reasonable doubt has been proved against the CD & DVDs(of Tehalka sting) which are produced as evidence" - Sibal quotes from the Naroda Patya judgment.

Sibal reads out the portions of Naroda Patya judgment saying that the extra-judicial confessions made to Tehalka journalist are reliable and it was safe to convict the accused on the basis of them.

Sibal reads out the portions of the judgment in the Naroda Patya case which say that the tapes of Tehalka sting operation are admissible in evidence and are authentic.

Sibal : They(SIT) examine him (Ashish Khetan, Tehalka journalist) as a prosecution witness there (in Naroda Patya case) but do not produce him in this case.

Sibal : In the Naroda Patya matter, Ashish Khetan (The Tehalka Sting journalist) was a prosecution witness. In this case, 15 DVDs and 5 CDs were produced on record.

Sibal : He admits to having killed people! The question to be asked is, what was the SIT doing? There was no investigation. There was only effort to protect, to protect the VHP people, Bajrang dal people, to protect the policemen, the bureaucracy.

Sibal refers to Haresh Bhat's statements to Tehalka journalist regarding police inaction.

"Police just stood by. They supported us", Sibal quotes his statements.

"I killed 3-4 Muslims in Baroda", Sibal quotes Bhat's statement.
