Supreme Court is extending jurisdiction of Special Investigation Team (SIT) under the leadership of ex-CBI head R K Raghvan to re-investigate riot cases after the Godhara carnage. Gujarat High Court rejected a petition of BJP’s ex-MLA Kalu Maliwad demanding that SIT cannot summon and interrogate Chief Minister Modi. If SIT summons and interrogates Modi, he will be probably the first CM in the country facing such a situation.
Sohrabuddin fake encounter case
A case of fake encounter of Sohrabuddin Shaikh in Narol on the outskirts of Ahmedabad in 2004 is still in the limelight. Last week, the Supreme Court ordered the Gujarat government to compensate Sohrab’s family. Moreover, the Gujarat High Court has ordered the reexamining of another controversial encounter – that involving one Isharat Jahan and three others in April-2004.
Non-action in the Asaram Bapu case
In 2008, two boys residing in a well known spiritual leader Asaram Bapu’s Motera ashram were found dead on the banks of Sabarmati river. It was clear in primary investigations that the duo was murdered; but after one year, police is still unable to crack the case.
Land controversies
Many farmers of six districts are protesting the decision of the state government to allot fertile plots of land to certain industrialists. Many farmers from Mahuva (Bhavnagar), Anavarpura (Patan), Zarpara (Kutch), Vadodara zala (Junagarh), Mocha (Porbandar) and Umargam (Valsad) have publicly pledged not to give their land to the state government for industrial use.
