Cobrapost sting on Babri issue has no evidentiary value: CBI

April 04, 2014 18:50

The sting operation carried out by 'Cobrapost' giving details of the alleged conspiracy by right-wing organisations to bring down Babri Masjid in 1992 has no evidentiary value for CBI as it has already completed the investigation.

Highly-placed sources of the agency said investigation in the cases has been completed after collecting all the legally tenable evidence based on which the cases are at trial stage.

They said the so-called revelations made by Cobrapost prima facie do not look to be legally tenable evidence. The sources said since trial has already progressed, the agency may not use these tapes as evidence before the court.
