11 life terms for Gujarat violence

11 life terms for Gujarat violence

World June 17, 2016 17:12

- An Indian court on Friday eleven Hindus to life imprisonment sentenced for the murder of dozens of Muslims during riots in 2002 in Gujarat. Twelve others were given seven years and a suspicious decade.

The deaths occurred in a period of intense violence in Gujarat that cost more than a thousand people, mostly Muslims, life. During the riots, a housing complex set on fire in the city of Ahmedabad in February 2002, which killed 69 Muslims, including women and children.

The riots took place while Narendra Modi, the current Prime Minister of India, was prime minister of the state. Modi was the accusation that he had not done enough to stop the violence. A panel of the Indian Supreme Court ruled in 2013, however, that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute him.
