Court To Deliver Verdict On Framing Charges Against Congress Leader Jagdish Tytler In 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots Case On August 16

Rouse Avenue Court will deliver its verdict on August 16 regarding the framing of charges against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler in a case related to the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. The court was scheduled to issue the verdict on August 2, but Judge Rakesh Sayal, who reserved his judgment on July 19, was on leave, causing the postponement.

In this case, a witness alleged that Tytler exited a white Ambassador car in front of Gurdwara Pul Bangash on November 1, 1984, and incited a mob to kill Sikhs, stating that they had killed “our mother.” Following this incident, three people were killed.

Anti-Sikh riots erupted across the country after Prime Minister Indira Gandhi’s assassination by her Sikh bodyguards on October 31, 1984. In August last year, a sessions court granted anticipatory bail to Tytler, imposing conditions such as not tampering with evidence and not leaving the country without permission. The CBI has charged Tytler under IPC sections 147 (rioting), 109 (incitement to commit a crime), and 302 (murder).
