Khushid says SC ruling no clean chit to Modi

September 12, 2011 16:31

Law Minister Salman Khurshid today said the decision of the Supreme Court not to further monitor the Gujarat riots case was in no way a clean chit to Chief Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP was reacting even before the issue has been settled by the judiciary.

He contended that the SIT report was still not in the public domain and "the Supreme Court has said the SIT must put its report before the magistrate (in Ahmedabad)...All this is still to happen and the BJP are claiming they are in the clean and are acquitted."

"I want to know whether they are privy to inside records of the Supreme Court, the high court or the trial court," Khurshid quipped.
