Delhi court to hear case against Jagdish Tytler on November 12

A Delhi court is likely to hear on November 12 the arguments in a case against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler in connection with the killing of three persons in north Delhi’s Pul Bangash area during the 1984 anti-Sikh riots.

Special Judge Jitendra Singh, who was scheduled to hear the matter on Tuesday, adjourned it after being told that the counsel for the accused was unwell.

“It is submitted by counsel for accused that main counsel/his father is not well..., therefore, he has requested for a short adjournment. The adjournment is opposed by counsel for the complainant. In the interest of justice, one opportunity is granted to counsel for accused due to his personal difficulty,” he said.
