Was Harassed for Giving Modi a Clean Chit in 2002 Gujarat Riots, says Ex-CBI Director RK Raghavan
News 18In a new book, titled A Road Well Travelled, former CBI Director RK Raghavan, known for his role as the Special Investigation Team head in the 2002 Gujarat riots, revealed how he was harassed for giving a clean chit to then Chief Minister of Gujarat, Narendra Modi. A few others, including Sanjeev Bhat, had also alleged that the chief minister, at a late night official meeting on 28 February 2002, had directed senior police officers present at the meeting not to intervene if Hindu emotions overflowed. In our report to the apex court, we absolved the chief minister of the alleged illegal direction to the police.” The SIT’s unequivocal stand on the chief minister’s role was unpalatable to his adversaries in the state and in Delhi, claims Raghavan. In the book, he writes, “It was unfortunate that the first two were eased out during the early days of the SIT by the apex court on some flimsy charges levelled by some vested interests, backed by a political party which was bent on defaming the then Gujarat government.” Despite Raghavan’s best efforts to protect them, they were let go and Raghavan too faced several personal attacks for requesting the Supreme Court via email to not dismiss them.
