Swami Aseemanand’s acquittal weakened judicial system: MBT

Chanchalguda: Majlis Bachao Tahreek (MBT) leader Amjedullah Khan on Monday said that the acquittal of Swami Aseemanand and other four accused in Mecca Masjid blast case weakened the judicial system and people’s belief in the process.
 
Addressing media after the acquittal of all the five accused in Mecca Masjid blast case at the party office, MBT spokesperson said that the State prosecuting agencies covertly helped the accused by suppressing the truth and facts, thus making Judiciary helpless in delivering Justice to the innocent citizens killed in Mecca Masjid bomb blast.

Commenting on the process of investigation which took more than a decade, Khan said that senior investigating officials were investigating the case with pre-determined notion as they declared a Muslim youth as culprit within 10 minutes of the blast and declared a line of investigation in Muslim context, arrested about 200 innocent Muslim youths, framed charges against 29 to be involved and filled chargesheet against them. 

Later, Hemant Karkare, a Maharastra police officer brought to light the culprits as the activist of Abhinav Bharat in face of Swami Aseemanand and others. He demanded that the TRS government take cognizance of matter in the interest of upholding Human Rights and take corrective steps by filling appeal in High Court against the acquittal of Swami Aseemanand and others in Mecca Masjid blast.
