New Delhi (March 10, 2010): The Sikhs for Justice, through a newsletter, informed that ACMM Lokesh Kumar Sharma on March 10, 2010 granted bail to Congress Leader Sajjan Kumar and nine accused for their involvement in November 1984 massacre of Sikhs. All the accused furnished a personal and surety bond of Rs 50,000 each.
Senior advocate HS Phoolka said: “We will move the Supreme Court against the high court order at the earliest. This is miscarriage of justice.”
Expressing anguishes on the bail, Babu Singh Dukhiya, cordinator of November 1984 Sikh Katelyam Committee, Delhi which is working in coordination with Sikhs for Justice and All India Sikh Student Federation said that there is no hope of justice left. He further stated that when the high court has granted Sajjan Kumar bail then there was no question of the trial court of not giving him bail; our all hopes are shattered now.
Attorney Gurpatwant S Pannun stated that it is very unfortunate that inspite of admitting the fact that the charges against Sajjan Kumar is of extremely grave nature, Delhi High Court granted bail to him.
Shiromani Akali Dal (Panch Pardhani) leader Harpal Singh Cheema said; “Indian Judicial system is biased. Killers are moving free and inoocents are being harrashed.”
