The designated POTA court on Monday sentenced nine persons to life imprisonment in the Haren Pandya murder case. The senior BJP leader and former Gujarat home minister was shot dead at a park in Ahmedabad on March 26, 2003.
The investigation of the case was first carried out by the Ahmedabad crime branch and was then handed over to the CBI.
The CBI had claimed a major breakthrough in the case when the director of the investigating agency flew down to Ahmedabad and claimed that they had recovered the murder weapon and the clothes worn by Asghar Ali, one of the prime accused in the case.
