New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday rejected the request of the former Leader of Congress Sajjan Kumar, which presented a life sentence in the 1984 anti-Sikh case, looking for interim guarantees for health reasons.
The APEX court examined Kumar’s medical record and observed that he had been examined by a doctor at a government hospital here and his condition was declared stable and increased.
Judge Sanjay Kishan Kiss and M M Sundresh said he did not tend to grant it for medical reasons.
The 75-year-old Kumar served a life sentence after the Delhi High Court had punished him and others in the case of December 17, 2018.
The High Court had reversed Kumar’s release by the trial court in 2013 in the case related to the murder of five Sikh in the Raj Nagar area -I at Palam Colony in Southwest Delhi in November 1984, and burned a Gurdwara in Raj Nagar P-II.
The riots had broken after the killing of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on October 31, 1984 by two Sikh’s bodyguards.
