Verdict in the 2008 Malegaon blast case, which killed six people and injured 101, is expected today in a special NIA court in Mumbai.
Seven individuals, including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit, remain on trial for allegedly plotting the attack as part of a right-wing extremist group.
The case, initially investigated by Maharashtra ATS and later transferred to the NIA, saw charges under UAPA and IPC retained while MCOCA was dropped in 2017 due to procedural concerns.
