New Delhi: In a relief
to former Gujarat minister Amit Shah, the Supreme Court Thursday
stayed all proceedings against him before a court in Ahmedabad
over the 2006 alleged staged shootout killing of Tulsiram
Prajapati.
The apex court bench of Justice P. Sathasivam and Justice Ranjan
Gogoi, while ordering the stay on the proceedings, said that
initially the bench had thought of referring the matter to the
high court but decided to hear it as it involved interpretation of
its own order handing over investigation to the Central Bureau of
Investigation (CBI).
Senior counsel Mukul Rohtagi, appearing for Shah, told the court
that instead of filing a separate chargesheet the CBI could file a
supplementary set of charges.
He said Gujarat Police had already filed a chargesheet in the case
earlier.
The court issued notice to the CBI and directed the listing of the
matter Nov 23.
According to the CBI, Prajapti, who was suspected to be an aide of
alleged gangster Sohrabuddin Sheikh, was killed by Gujarat Police
in the state in 2006 a few weeks after the staged shootout killing
of Sheikh.
