The Congress on Friday said the Supreme Court order releasing all six convicts serving life imprisonment in connection with the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case was “totally unacceptable and completely erroneous”.
The party said the apex court has not acted in consonance with the spirit of India on this issue.
The Supreme Court on Friday ordered the release of all six remaining convicts serving life imprisonment in connection with the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case, including Nalini Sriharan, R P Ravichandran, Santhan, Murugan, Robert Payas and Jayakumar.
In a statement, AICC General Secretary In-Charge Communications Jairam Ramesh said, “The decision of the Supreme Court to free the remaining killers of former PM Shri Rajiv Gandhi is totally unacceptable and completely erroneous.”
“The Congress Party criticises it clearly and finds it wholly untenable. It is most unfortunate that the Supreme Court has not acted in consonance with the spirit of India on this issue,” he added.
