Now that all suspence has been removed, Teesta and Mrs. Jaffri, Mukul Sinha and Javed Mia/Sabana as well as Mallika should ask themselves, whether they have concrete evidence that Mr. Modi lied in this interview? Obviously SIT did not have any such evidence and hence SIT had no choice but to give clean chit to Mr. Modi. And yes, it was a CLEAN CHIT to Mr. Modi, no if and or but about it. Mr. Pande may have given his opinion about not bringing bodies of Kar Sevaks to Ahmedabad, but SIT thoroughly investigated that point and concluded that it was a valid and necessary decision.

Well said.....
I really liked the tone and tenor of all the answers given by Modi to a number of questions. He really gave pointed answers to whatever he was supposed to know as a CM of the state. On media reports, rumors, allegations, he shot them down with the contempt they deserved. This is exactly what you would expect from a person of his stature - respect for the law and contempt for libel.
It is amazing. I remember just after the interview, the media reported that Mr. Modi answered most of the questions as "I don't know or as I don't remember as it happened long time ago".
I have read twice the Statement of Modi .So what fault the Secu Brigade finds with ? Except mein na manoo attitude.
If Modi says Zafri sahib did not call it then the Secus could have given the records of Zafri's calls .Merely bogus un-verified and unsubstantiated statements by Secu Team and Bhat that Records of Phone calls have been destroyed by the SIT can't be accepted as they are biased ones specially Bhat who finds that Noose for Custodial killing is speedily inching towards his neck. We also know Bhat has been offered protection openly by Chidambram an unique example where the Home Minister of the Country is offering protection to a Custodial killer . Teesta has her own interests as she is getting fund sfor keeping the issue on boil .Even her Deputy Rais Khan has confirmed so .
Thus a Political Agenda of the Secus to keep Modi embroiled needlessly so that he does not become an National Leader & a threat to them .
>>I am waiting for our own Anwaar miyan to read and interpret this,
Well you will have to wait till Mukul Sinha and Teesta Setalvad put their spin on it and publish it in TwoCircles.
I did not open the bogus link given by Faruki but
do hereby solmenly confirm and affirm that the Hindu Karsevaks self burnt the bogie at Godhra after securely bolting it from inside so that Gujarat Riots happen .Nothing else will satisfy the guilty conscious of a large number of Indians though they had not taken any part in burning the RailCar
@ Kiran Bagachi, I think everyone should read the whole thing. Very detailed and every question was answered, without beating around the bush.
I didnt have the patience to read the whole thing. I am waiting for our own Anwaar miyan to read and interpret this, and then tell us whether its a kiss on our cheek or slap on our face...
