Nagpur News :- All six ABVP students acquitted in Ujjain professor murder case

Nearly three years after they were accused in the murder of college professor H S Sabharwal in Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, six ABVP activists were acquitted on Monday by a court in Nagpur for lack of evidence.

“The prosecution has failed to put up evidence to prove its case and hence the court acquits all six accused,” Additional Sessions Judge Nitin Dalvi said in his brief statement today in the court.

The case was transferred from Ujjain to Nagpur court vide a Supreme Court order in March 2008 in view of the fear that investigations could be tampered with in Madhya Pradesh, which has a BJP government and all accused reportedly belonged to ABVP, the party’s student wing.

The six accused, Shashiranjan Akela, Vimal Tomar, Vishal Rajoria, Hemant Dube, Pankaj Mishra and Sudhir Yadav, were in court when the judgment was delivered.

While their hailed the judgement as “justice done since we knew we were innocent”, the late Ujjain professor’s son Himanshu has decided to challenge the judgment in the Supreme Court. “My father died once again today. The verdict is disappointing but not unexpected since the BJP government in Madhya Pradesh successfully managed to sabotage the case,” he said.
