"Such Convicts Are Like Man-Eater Leopard": Court In Ahmedabad Blasts Case
NDTV
The special court has sentenced to death 38 members of terror outfit Indian Mujahideen for the 2008 Ahmedabad serial blasts which killed 56 people.
The 38 convicts in the 2008 Ahmedabad serial blasts case deserve the death sentence as allowing them to remain in society is akin to releasing a "man-eater leopard" in public that consumes innocents without caring if they are children, youth, elderly, or the people from different caste and communities, the special court said in its order.
A copy of the judgement was made available on Saturday.
The special court on Friday sentenced to death 38 members of terror outfit Indian Mujahideen (IM) for the Ahmedabad bombings which killed 56 people and injured over 200 on July 26, 2008. It also gave life terms to another 11 IM convicts in the case.
It is for the first time in the country that the maximum number of death sentences were handed down by a court in one go.
