2 min readBy PTI
PUNE: A e-book on Malegaon blast accused Lieutenant Colonel Prasad Purohit was launched right here on Sunday amid protests from some teams who claimed it was inappropriate to carry such an occasion when the trial within the case was underway.
The launch of ‘Lt Colonel Purohit – The Man Betrayed’ written by Smita Mishra happened in SP College within the presence of retired Indian Police Service officer Jayant Umranikar, with the programme being hosted by defence knowledgeable and tv character Major Gaurav Arya (retired).
Meanwhile, some native outfits, together with the Bhimarmy Bahujan Ekta Mission and the Mulnivasi Muslim Manch, staged protests throughout the day after their plea to SP College authorities to cancel the e-book launch occasion didn’t elicit a response.
“It is inappropriate to hold such an event to launch a book such as this when the trial in the Malegaon blast case is underway. Our protest is against Purohit,” Mulnivasi Muslim Manch president Anjum Inamdar mentioned.
Six folks have been killed and greater than 100 injured after a bomb positioned on a motorbike went off close to a mosque in Malegaon in north Maharashtra on September 29, 2008.
Among the seven people who find themselves going through trial beneath Indian Penal Code and stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) is Lt Colonel Prasad Purohit.
He is at the moment out on bail.
