India’s Apex Court rejects petition to release Nalini
The Supreme Court of India has dismissed a petition seeking release of Nalini and three others who were convicted in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case.
India’s Apex Court rejected the plea for the release of four key conspirators in the assassination case who had claimed that the investigation was flawed as the alleged role of self styled god-man Chandra swami and 21 others were not probed. A Bench comprising Justices V S Sirpurkar and Mukundakam Sharma refused to interfere with the Madras High Court judgment which had on April 28th 2009, dismissed the similar petition with a fine of 100 thousand rupees on the petitioner E Veluchamy of Trichy claiming to be a Congress worker.
