India Supeme Court allows Zakia Jafri to file protest petition against SIT closure report

The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed Zakia Jafri to file a fresh protest petition in a trial court against the SIT’s closure report reportedly giving clean chit to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi in a 2002 riot case in Ahmedabad in which her husband and ex-Congress MP was killed.

The apex court directed that the widow of slain leader Ehsan Jafri be supplied with entire report of the inquiry by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) in the 2002 Gulburg Housing Society riot case of Ahmedabad to enable her to file the protest petition.
