The Bombay High Court on Monday acquitted all 12 men who were convicted of the 2006 Mumbai train bombings that killed 189 people and injured over 800. Out of the 12, five convicts were on death row. The acquittal came nearly two decades after the serial blasts shook Mumbai’s suburban railway network.
A special bench of Justices Anil Kilor and Shyam Chandak read out the operative part of the order, pointing out serious flaws in the prosecution’s case. The court observed that key witnesses were unreliable, identification parades were questionable, and confessional statements were extracted through torture.
