New Delhi: A Delhi Court reserved its order on the petitions of victims of 1984 anti-Sikh riots case on Saturday, pleading they should be heard while deciding the alleged involvement of former Union Minister Jagdish Tytler in it.
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Rakesh Pandit fixed June 3 for pronouncement of the order on the application filed by riot victims as well as Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee that the court should decide their right to be heard in the matter.
Senior Counsel H S Phoolka, appearing for the victims, said the victims had a right to be heard in the matter.
CBI had on April 2 sought to close the case against Tytler, claiming there was no sufficient evidence against him.
However, the court had refused to accept CBI's closure report and directed the agency to further investigate the case in December 2007, compelling the agency to send its officials to the United States to record the Singh's statement.
