Only because they are Muslim Can someone with legal expertise objectively analyse the judgment in the context of the oral evidence led as has been done in the case of the Dr. Binayak Sen judgment for us to assess the nature of the evidence without this one cannot arrive at a conclusion on the justice and injustice of the issues involved . Teesta could perhaps give us a brief backdrop .

Only because they are Muslim [Not only is the case of the 63 people acquitted by the judge shocking and shameful. We need to be concerned about those that were found guilty. What is the strength of the evidence used to convict them? The judge seems to have relied mainly on the evidence of testimony of 9 BJP men. These men have claimed to have witnessed the accused participate in the burning of the Godhra train. Two of the men were subject of a Tehelka sting and the men admitted to telling. Unfortunately, we have come to expect the massive anti-muslim bias of the judges to play a powerful role in deciding how verdicts are delivered i India. It will take another 10 year for the appeals to reach the high court and the supreme court and we can only hope that there will be judges who will have the honesty and the decency to rise above personal prejudice. -- Sandeep ] Those acquitted have lost nine years of their lives. Only because they are Muslim http://www.tehelka.com/story_main49.asp?filename=Ws250211acquitted.asp “The police claim that it arrested people on the spot at the railway station but the truth is, it was these people who picked us up in combing operations in Muslim areas to please political bosses. During cross examination, Sub Inspector MS Jhala, the first investigating officer, admitted that he had informed the Home Minister and his seniors that no one had been arrested till 3:30 pm that day. Other police witnesses admit that 42 people were arrested at 11:30 pm. The chargesheet mentioned only 16 people because they knew there was no evidence against most,” says Yusuf Charkha, a Godhra-based lawyer who represents the accused. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
