A New Delhi court has set June 30 as the date for the hearing of supplementary charge sheet filed against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler in a 39-year-old anti-Sikh riots case. Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Vidhi Anand Gupta of a special MP-MLA court needs time to go through the charge sheet and will pass an order accordingly. The Rouse Avenue Court approved the supplementary charge sheet filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) against Tytler in the riots case and transferred the case to the Special MP-MLA Court for the trial. The Congress leader was named in the charge sheet due to fresh evidence against him. He allegedly incited a mob that murdered three people at the Gurudwara Pul Bangash area in 1984. The CBI registered the case on November 22, 2005, and collected Tytler’s voice samples in April this year. Justice Nanavati Commission of Inquiry was set up by the Centre in the year 2000 to enquire into the incidents of anti-Sikh riots in 1984 in Delhi. After consideration of the Commission’s report, Ministry of Home Affairs (Government of India) issued directions to CBI to investigate the case against then Member of Parliament and others.
