The Narendra Modi government in Gujarat suffered a setback with the Supreme Court directing a CBI probe into the Soharabuddin Sheikh encounter case. The Narendra Modi government in Gujarat
today suffered a setback with the Supreme Court directing a CBI probe into the 2005 Soharabuddin Sheikh encounter case. A bench of Justices Tarun Chatterjee and Aftab Alam in its
verdict accepted the demand for the probe on the plea of the brother of Sohrabuddin Sheikh, who was allegedly killed in a fake encounter by the Gujarat Police. The decision is a major blow
to the BJP government in Gujarat, which has been consistently maintaining that it's SIT was conducting the probe in an impartial manner.
