Swami Aseemanand, six others acquitted in Ajmer dargah blast case

[ranjeet]

An NIA court in Jaipur on Wednesday convicted three persons in the 2007 Ajmer dargah blast case. The court acquitted seven accused, including Swami Aseemanand, in the case. Among the three convicts Sunil Joshi is no more. The court has imposed a fine of Rs. 1 lakh on the other two convicts — Bhavesh Patel and Devendra Kumar.

The court will sentence the convicts on March 16, 2017.

The explosion in the 13th Century dargah of Sufi mystic Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti on October 11, 2007, during Ramzan, left three persons dead and 17 injured.


The shrine was packed to capacity, with about 5,000 devotees, when the blast occurred at the time of ‘iftaar’ (breaking of fast).

The case was transferred in 2011 from the Rajasthan Anti-Terrorism Squad to the NIA, which filed three supplementary charge sheets in the court. The case moved fast-track after the change of government at the Centre in 2014. Besides Lokesh and Chandrashekhar, other accused in the case are Swami Aseemanand, Bhavesh Patel, Harshad Solanki, Devendra Kumar, Mehul Kumar, Mukesh Vasani and Bharat Bhai. Three other accused are absconding, while one of the accused, Sunil Joshi, was murdered in December 2007.

Swami Aseemanand’s confession in the case before a metropolitan magistrate at Tis Hazari courts in Delhi made headlines in December 2010. He had stated that he and other activists were involved in bombings at various places of worship across the country for taking revenge against the terror acts of Muslims.

I hope the "Liberals" will take note of this judgement and trend hashtags against the long incarceration of an innocent man.

But no they wont. This does not fit their narrative. When mulim youth are freed by the courts opeds are written and hashtags are trended saluting the judiciary. In this case they will critisize the judiciary

So this is that innocent guy who was put behind bar for confessing to have carried out various act of terror against Muslims?

Muslim youths also "confess" to terror and after few years are aquitted. At that time the "Liberals" hail the judiciary. Right now they are silent

Whosoever breaks the law should be taken to the task irrecpective of creed,caste or Religion but here we are seeing double standards as on one side we have:

While on the other side we see convicts walking free even when they had confessed to their crimes. What message is being sent out there by such actions? Mark my words, if ppl out there shunned the secular India notion then it will bring in lots of miseries one way or the other and right now I can see that Secular India is fast turning away from its self placed boundaries.

Problem is that in India Secularism had become equal to muslim appeasement. Now this is being corrected

So U are saying that 14.2% Muslim minority is being appeased at the cost of overwhelming 79.8% Hindu Majority? Who is such a fool to appease such a minority while angering a big majority?

 

[hussain0216]

Of course they were, their is no justice in india just mob rule.

the Congress party was such a fool

The then PM Dr. ManMohan Singh said "Muslims should have First Claim on Resources"
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...-claim-on-resources-PM/articleshow/754937.cms

After the poll debacle in 2014 congress set up a committee under A K Anthony - the then Defence minister. The committee said that in there pursuant of minority appeasement they got secularism wrong

Still the congress keeps on trying to appease muslims

Those were mere slogans as same slogans have been raised by almost every political party but none have been materialized. Take the same very first claim source thing here and we know that it was just one of the million "should" and "must" type of promises which never took shape. Anyways its your country n we are no one meddling in your affairs. Good Luck.

Hindu Majority ? every regional & state & national parties are depend or affiliated to some cast or sub cast belong to Hindu Religion so in order to grab the power they need a vote share which is undivided like, Muslim vote and for that they will do any thing.

below list is just an example of sub casts in Karnataka where 84% are Hindus but while voting every community votes for person from there community so its common that in order to get majority every one will depend on Muslim votes.

Description Population Percentage
Hindu 51,317,472 84.00 %
Muslim 7,893,065 12.92 %
Christian 1,142,647 1.87 %
Jain 440,280 0.72 %
Not Available 166,087 0.27 %
Buddhist 95,710 0.16 %
Sikh 28,773 0.05 %
Other Religion 11,263 0.02 %

http://infoelections.com/infoelecti...te-religion-wise-population-demographics.html

CASTE / COMMUNITY SUB-CASTES POPULATION PERCENTAGE
Scheduled Castes 180 1.08 crore 18
Muslims 84 75 lakh 12.5
Lingayats 90 59 lakh 9.8
Vokkaligas 10 49 lakh 8.16
Kurubas 43 lakh 7.1
ST 105 42 lakh 7
Brahmins 13 lakh 2.1

http://www.thenewsminute.com/articl...-results-trigger-debate-political-panic-41511

I give my place example for better understanding, in my district, Shimoga, present MLA is Prasanna Kumar is a Congress member and who belongs to Hindu Bramhin cast and he was elected, as, Brahmins, Muslims & Scheduled Cast people supported him because during election time BJP was busy with internal power struggle between BSY (Previous CM) who was a Lingayat vs KSE (Previous Dy CM) who belonged to Kurubas cast. Though RSS supports BJP in the above case they rallied for a Brahmin as RSS couldn't decided between BSY & KSE

@shah1398 Custodial confessions are invalid in India, and even confession before the Magistrate may be inadequate for conviction, all for good reasons. Police and investigation agencies in South Asia do not have a stellar record when it comes to interrogation of suspects. Confession obtained through torture is assumed.

So the investigation has to rely on the chain of evidence they can build without reference to the actual confession. And if they cannot build a case, it cannot be the fault of the accused. We are all innocent until proven otherwise.

@Soumitra you are right. If Swami Aseemanand has been held not guilty, then his incarceration was a grave injustice. The government should have a clear compensation policy in such cases so that a person deprived of liberty can be restituted.

I don't think either liberals or conservatives should have a problem with that.

well some disappointment for baiting brigade of libtards. Investigations did take lot of time due to the fact the case had more political machinations engineered by congress. It will be a sharp slap on their face.
