Rajiv gandhi assassination by d&r karthikeyan

Post a Comment. January 31, Chennai, Sri Lanka Guardian Certain factual aspects have been constrained to be repeated for appreciation and excerpts from the passage from the books authored by the Head of the Special Investigation Team and the Chief Investigation officer are necessarily to be quoted verbatim and therefore the author craves the indulgence of the readers to bear with him. The death row convicts in Rajiv Gandhi Assassination case are eagerly awaiting the impending result that would ensue in the Writ petition which is about to be heard before The Honourable High Court of Judicature at Madras at the end of this month and they are very much hopeful and expectant that their life would be saved and in reality, the 13 long years of incarceration in itself would tantamount to execution. A chunk of prime of their life has been truncated and made a waste and their plea is they are innocent of crime foisted against them.
