Gujarat minister for Women and Child Development, Maya Kodnani and VHP leader Jaydeep Patel have been summoned by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) for questioning in the Naroda Gam case of 2002 riots.
"We have summoned Maya Kodnani and Jaydeep Patel as part of our investigation into some of the riot cases," P.L. Mal, Investigation Officer in the Naroda Gam case told PTI.
"Patel has been asked to come to SIT office in Gandhinagar for questioning on December 25, while Kodnani has been called on December 26," he said.
Many witnesses have named Kodnani and Patel in their statements in the Naroda Gam riot case as per the initial charge sheet filed in the case.
Eleven people belonging to the minority community were killed by a mob during communal riots in 2002.
SIT, constituted by the Supreme Court for re-investigating the Godhra train burning incident and some of the post-Godhra cases, has been proactive in conducting its investigation since early this months.
They have filed supplementary charge sheets in the Naroda Patiya, Naroda Gam and Gulburg society cases this month.
