The verdict of the Sohrabuddin encounter case is out, and the Special CBI court has acquitted all the 22 cops accused in the case.

The Special CBI judge observed in his order that all the witnesses and proofs are not satisfactory to prove conspiracy and murder, the court also observed that circumstantial evidence is not substantial.


Earlier, the investigating officer had submitted in his report that BJP president Amit Shah and other cops were involved in the murder of Tulsiram Prajapati.

The court has observed in its verdict that “allegation that Tulsiram Prajapati was murdered through a conspiracy is not true.”

The court has further said that “Govt machinery and prosecution put in a lot of effort, 210 witnesses were brought but satisfactory evidence didn't come and witnesses turned hostile. No fault of prosecutor if witnesses don't speak.”
