The Special Investigation Team (SIT) on Sunday opposed sharing with activists its final report on the probe into allegations of Gujarat CM Narendra Modi’s involvement in 2002 riots, as a court reserved till Wednesday its order on their plea seeking access to the crucial document.
During the hearing in the court of metropolitan magistrate M S Bhatt, the SC-appointed SIT opposed the applications by Teesta Seetalvad and other activists, saying some of them had no locus standi to be given a copy of the report. SIT had submitted the report to the court last week amid speculation that Modi may have got relief in the probe on Zakia Jafri’s complaint against the CM and others on the post-Godhra riots. Zakia’s husband Ehsan Jafri, a former Congress MP, was among the 69 people killed in Gulbarg Housing society riots.
