Mumbai: In the 1,036-page judgment in the 2008 Malegaon blast case , the special NIA court, while acquitting all seven accused, has dismissed claims that senior officers from Maharashtra ATS had directed one of the investigating officers to arrest RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat in the case.
Special judge A K Lahoti said the court didn't find force in the contentions raised by the lawyer for a now-acquitted accused, math pontiff Sudhakar Dhar Dwivedi, reports Rebecca Samervel.
The lawyer had alleged ATS investigating fficer Mehboob Mujawar allegedly refused to carry out the order to arrest Bhagwat, saying he found no evidence of his involvement. As a result, Mujawar was "entangled in a false case by ATS".
