A day after arresting former top police official R.B. Sreekumar and activist Teesta Setalvad for alleged forgery regarding the 2002 Gujarat riots cases, the Gujarat Police on Sunday formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe their role in the case.
The SIT is headed by Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) Deputy Inspector General Deepan Bhadran while Superintendent of Police of the ATS Sunil Joshi and Deputy Commissioner of Police of the Ahmedabad crime branch Chaitanya Mandlik are its members.
The police will collect the documents submitted by the three accused — Ms. Setalvad, Mr. Sreekumar, and former IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt — in connection with the 2002 Gujarat riots cases.
