SIT finds ‘new evidences' in Ishrat case

The Hindu  

The Gujarat High Court-appointed Special Investigation Team probing the Ishrat Jahan encounter case is believed to have found new evidence, which could prove it to be a fake encounter. It was not clear whether the laboratory was under instruction to “hide” the crucial photographs since the encounter on June 15, 2004, but the angry officials filed a complaint with the police against Mr. Verma and his Deputy, Assistant Commissioner of Police V.R. The incident also brought out the sharp differences within the three-member SIT, with Joint Police Commissioner of Ahmedabad Mohan Jha, who is also the second member of the SIT, turning from one police officer to the other for “enquiry” against Mr. Verma, on the complaint by the FSL officials. Mr. Jha was in charge of the Ahmedabad Police Commissionerate on the night of the Verma team's “raid” on the FSL laboratory, in the absence of Police Commissioner Amitabh Pathak, who was on leave. The differences between Mr. Verma and the two other team members, Mr. Jha and SIT leader Karnail Singh, Joint Police Commissioner of Delhi, had come out time and again, with Mr. Verma raising strong objections against the “investigation methods” and other issues of the team.
