Pune Court grants Rahul Gandhi permanent exemption from appearing in Savarkar defamation case
Hindustan TimesPune court on Tuesday granted Rahul Gandhi permanent exemption in defamation case over remarks on Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Gandhi’s counsel had earlier moved an application before the court saying there could be a threat to Gandhi’s life especially when Pune was a hometown of Nathuram Godse and the leader’s father and grandfather were assassinated by “bad elements” of the society. Earlier, advocate Milind Pawar who represents the leader of the opposition in an undated application moved before the court under section 205 of Cr P C and sought a permanent exemption of Gandhi from appearing before the court in Pune. Later VD Savarkar was acquitted in the murder case, however, his co-accused Nathuram Godse from Pune was convicted for the death sentence.” When contacted, advocate Milind Pawar said, “Besides seeking exemption, we had requested the court to convert the present case against Rahul Gandhi from summary to summons trial where we will have the opportunity of detailed cross-examination and even call some important documents from the government.”
