Ahmedabad, 31 August, 2011
The High Court has released the accused on technical grounds (from murder charge) and therefore CBI should take Haren Pandya murder case to the Supreme Court in appeal, Gujarat government’s spokesperson, Jay Narayan Vyas, said in Ahmedabad on Wednesday.
Reacting to the demand of Haren Pandya’s wife Jagruti Pandya that the case should be probed afresh, Vyas said, “Within hours of Pandya’s murder, state government had asked for independent CBI inquiry, and succeeded in getting it. Therefore, as far as we are concerned, the state government has done whatever was required to be done right on day one”
Two days ago, Gujarat high court dropped charges of murder against the 12 persons who had been convicted for murder of Haren Pandya, former minister of state for Home, in 2003. High court upheld the conviction for criminal conspiracy and offences under POTA.
