Ajmer Sharif Blast: NIA Court Frees Assemanand Of All Charges, Three Others Convicted

March 8, 2017 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

NewDelhi:  As per the latest media reports emerging from New Delhi the NIA court here today acquitted Swami Assemanand a main accuse in the Ajmer Sharif Blast case that took place on 11th October 2017 during the festival month of Ramzan on the dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti, killing three and injuring 17 people. The court, however, found three guilty in the blast case.

While referring to a report duly published in the ‘Caravan’ magazine the English vernacular quoted Swami Aseemanand as saying that Mohan Bhagwat, then RSS general secretary, told him that the blasts should not be linked to the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS). “He further told ‘The Caravan’ that Mohan Bhagwat said of the violence, ‘It is very important that it be done. But you should not link it to the Sangh (RSS)’,” said a press release issued by the magazine today.

The RSS, however, denied the charge and questioned the veracity of the interview with Aseemanand, who is currently in Ambala Central Jail. “It is a rubbish and concocted interview,” said the RSS’s all-India publicity chief Manmohan Vaidya
