Man acquitted in 26/11 terror attack petitions HC for certificate to drive an auto

MUMBAI: Fahim Arshad Mohammad Yusuf Ansari, one of the two accused to be acquitted in the 26/11 terror attacks case, has filed a petition in the Bombay high court, seeking a Police Clearance Certificate which will enable him work as a commercial autorickshaw driver. A special court cleared him and another man, Sabauddin Ahmed, of all the charges levelled against them on May 3, 2010, and on February 21, 2011, the Bombay High Court upheld their acquittal. The court however ruled that the maps were “confusing.” The special court also noted that the map found from Abu Ismail’s trouser pocket was neither crumpled nor blood stained despite him being shot dead. “How can a piece of paper kept in a trouser pocket remain this clean and uncreased from November 22 to 28?” the court asked ruling for Fahim and Sabauddin’s acquittal.
