The evidences of 340 other formal witnesses have been adduced by filing their affidavits in the court,Nikam said.

These witnesses were not examined personally because they were like the ones who had carried bodies of victims to hospitals,relatives of victims who claimed the bodies,people who suffered damage to their properties and medical officers who treated the victims.

“The trial began on May 8 and in about seven months the prosecution is ready to wind up the case,” said Nikam.
