Congress slams Narendra Modi on not appearing before SIT
New Delhi:Criticising the Gujarat Chief Minister Narendrea Modi for not appearing before the Special Investigation Team (SIT) in the Gujarat riots case, the Congress party on Sunday said that it was 'contemptuous' and showed that he 'loves to hide'. "The SIT's direction to Narendra Modi to
appear
before it shows the seriousness and importance attached to the issue by the apex
court," Congress party spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi said. "For Modi to avoid
appearing on any ground or pretext is contemptuous and would show that he loves
to hide," he said Modi has been summoned by SIT in connection with a complaint
of Zakia Jaffery , widow of former MP Eshan Jaffery who was killed by a mob along
with 69 others at Gulburg society in February 2002.
