Court Order On Tytler Exposes Cong: Phoolka

LUDHIANA, Punjab—Human rights activist and senior lawyer HS Phoolka today said the Delhi court’s rejection of CBI’s clean chit to Congress leader Jagdish Tytler was a slap on the face of the investigating agency as well the leaders who backed Tytler.He said the decision was an embarrassment for PPCC chief Capt Amarinder Singh who had been saying that Tytler and Kamal Nath were not involved in the riots for his vested interest to become the the state Congress president.“The Akali Dal which is trying to take the credit for the court’s decision should apologise to the riot victims as the clean chit was given to Tytler for the third time in December 2014 and the Deputy CM’s wife Harsimrat Kaur who is a Union Minister remained mum,” he alleged.Phoolka said the court also reprimanded the CBI to carry out the investigation properly and questioned why certain aspects were overlooked.Phoolka played the video wherein former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi reportedly appeared to have justified the riots. He said the Bharat Ratna conferred on the former PM should be withdrawn.
