Hearing an application by the Delhi Police for the unredacted statements of protected witnesses in the Delhi Riots larger conspiracy case, the Delhi High Court today directed the concerned trial court to send the statements to it in a sealed cover on or before Apr 14. The application was put in the case where Jamia Milia Islamia student Asif Iqbal Tanha faces prosecution for his alleged role in the riots.
While ordering so, the court also expressed surprise on why and how the prosecution did not have copies of the statements of its own witnesses, upon which it was informed by the Special Public Prosecutor Rajat Nair, that as these were protected witnesses, the unredacted copies of the statements were with the trial court only - and that the Investigating Officer was only given the redacted copies from the trial court till now. The order was passed by a bench of Justices Siddharth Mridul and Anup Jairam Bhambhani.
