Days after her acquittal in the 2008 Malegaon blast case by a special NIA court, former BJP MP Sadhvi Pragya has alleged she was tortured to name senior leaders. Sadhvi Pragya claimed she was pressured during the investigation to name Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat. She alleged that she was told the torture would stop if she complied, stating, "…unhone ki inke naam lo inke naam lo sabke naam lekar ke aur tum uh ye bologi to hum tumhen nahi peetenge (they said take their names…and if you say this, we will not beat you)." Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde defended her claims, accusing the UPA government of coining the term ‘Saffron Terrorism’ to frame Hindutva leaders. A retired police officer was also mentioned as having suggested that Mohan Bhagwat should be implicated in the case.
