Zakia Jafri gets SIT report on Gulberg Society massacre

Ahmedabad - The Supreme Court appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) on Monday handed over a copy of its closure report, one that gave a clean- chit to all 62 accused for the Gulberg Society massacre of 2002, to Zakia Jafri, wife of slain former Congress MP Ehsaan Jafri.

The metropolitan court of Ahmedabad had last month observed that the SIT report had not found any evidence against any of the 62 accused, including Gujrat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.

The court had also noted that since SIT had filed a closure report, Ms. Jafri, the main complainant, in compliance with the Supreme Court orders, must be given a copy of the report and supporting documents filed by the SIT before May 10.

The court will now hear the matter on May 10.
