Justice for Zakia Jaffri?
Kashmir Times. Dated: 11/15/2018 11:26:21 PM
Dear Editor
This is the beauty of democracy that no one is above the law and the Supreme Court. The best example and demonstration of this is that the Supreme Court has set November 19 as the date for hearing Zakia Jafri's plea against Gujarat high court's acquittal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his alleged role in the 2002 riots, where her husband, former Congress MP Ehsan Jafri, was killed in the Gulmarg society massacre during the 2002 Gujarat riots, during which people were dragged out of their homes, hacked and burned to death. However, I have strong belief in the highest court of the land that it will give Zakia Jafri justice for which she has been trying for more than 16 years and has left no stone unturned. I hope her endeavours will not be futile.
