Amicus curiae submits his views on SIT report in SC


The Supreme Court appointed amicus curiae Raju Ramachandran on Monday submitted his views on the Special Investigation Team’s finding that there was no prosecutable evidence against chief minister Narendra Modi.

Modi’s fate — whether he faces a criminal case or not — will partially depend on the report of senior advocate Ramachandran, who was asked by a special bench of Justices D K Jain, P Sathasivam and Aftab Alam to weigh the evidence on record and give an expert opinion on it.

Ramachandran’s report will be considered by the bench on July 28, which will be keenly watched by the BJP and the Modi government.

Ramachandran visited Gujarat and interacted with several witnesses and people connected with the issue before giving his report to the court.
