Anti-Sikh riots: Court acquits Sajjan Kumar



New Delhi: In a big relief to Congress leader Sajjan Kumar, a special CBI court in Karkardooma on Tuesday acquitted him in a case related to the 1984 anti-Sikh riots in Delhi.

The case pertains to violence in the Delhi Cantonment area. The Congress leader had been charged with murder, robbery, rioting, inciting violence, and damaging public property in that case.

The verdict triggered sharp protests outside the Karkardooma court by various Sikh organizations.
