KOTTAYAM: Terming the Nanavati Commission report as biased and politically motivated, a former Gujarat Director General of Police has said that it is aimed at helping Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and BJP during the next Lok Sabha elections.
The report gave clean chit to Modi and Gujarat police in the subsequent post-Godhra riots that claimed over 1000 lives. The report is "immature," R B Srikumar, who is also a human rights activist, alleged here.
The inquiry by special investigation team led by former CBI Director R K Raghavan was going on. "We can expect some truth to come out after the inquiry," he said.
He said the allegations that Nanavati Commission was Modi's own commission become true after the outcome of the primary report. "I have submitted before the commission many a proof, but it was not examined properly," the former IPS officer said.
"The then Home Secretary and Government pleader even threatened me not to give a statement against the government. I had informed the commission, but it did not take it seriously," Srikumar alleged.
