India: Jagdish Tytler case order coming up on 20th April 2010

Dear all

The CBI had filed a supplementary charge sheet stating that there was not sufficient evidence to charge sheet Congress (I) leader Jagdish Tytler for instigating, inciting the killing of Sikhs in Delhi in November 1984.

This has been challenged by Lakhwinder kaur whose husband Badal Singh was one of the 3 Sikhs killed by the mob incited by Tytler, outside Gurudwara Pulbangash on 1st November 1984. Her counsels - Rebecca John and Vrinda Grover have argued that there is sufficient evidence for the Court to take cognizance against J Tytler or in the alternative for the court to order the CBI to further investigate the case against Tytler as it has been pointed out that some available leads and evidence have not been explored by the CBI.

On 20th April 2010, the Court of Shri Rdakesh Pandit, ACMM, will pass an order in this matter pertaining to Jagdish Tytler at 2:00p.m. in Karkardooma court [New Delhi]
