Babri Case Verdict: It's justice delayed and denied, says Jamaat-e-Islami Hind

Jamaat-e-Islami Hind (JIH) has expressed disappointment at the verdict given by the designated CBI special court in the Babri Masjid demolition case in which all the 32 surviving accused have been acquitted. JIH President Syed Sadatullah Hussaini questioned that how the court arrived at the conclusion to demolish the Masjid and that the act was spontaneous and not pre-planned is difficult to understand.

New Delhi: Prominent Islamic organisation Jamaat-e-Islami Hind on Wednesday said that the special CBI court's verdict acquitting all the 32 accused persons is disappointing and history will not judge our nation kindly over the Babri Masjid demolition case, where justice was delayed, denied and the accused culprits were rewarded and set scot-free.

"The verdict by CBI's special court in Babri Masjid demolition is disappointing. Even after 28 years, the justice that people were seeking has not been delivered. The designated court has acquitted all the accused citing lack of evidence notwithstanding the fact that just 10 months back the Supreme Court of India had called the demolition a criminal act and a violation of the law," said Jamaat-e-Islami Hind (JIH) President Syed Sadatullah Hussaini.

JIH President questioned that how the court arrived at the conclusion to demolish the Masjid and that the act was spontaneous and not pre-planned is difficult to understand.

"The entire Ramjanmabhoomi movement and the Rath-yatra initiated by LK Advani one of the main accused in the case was nothing but a mission to construct a temple at the exact same site where the Masjid stood," he added.

Syed Sadatullah averted that naturally, we support the case to be challenged before the higher court as all justice lovely citizens of this country can never be satisfied with this judgement.

"We live in a civilized society where the rule of the law is paramount and we do not approve of any extra-judicial or violence that disregards the law of the land to achieve one's political agenda," the JIH president added.
