AID Demands following Tehelka Expose on Gujarat Violence |
|
AID Demands: - that new
evidence brought to light by the Tehelka exposé be rapidly looked at and action
taken to arrest and bring to justice those who perpetrated, aided and abetted
the violence; and that the pending cases be heard and resolved by the Courts in
an expedited manner.
- Further, all Constitutional means should be considered to
ensure that the Gujarat administration does
not continue to subvert the rule of law in delivering justice to the victims.
All the survivors and families affected in Gujarat
in 2002 should be adequately compensated and rehabilitated, and clear steps
taken to end the isolation and ghettoization of the communities affected by the
riots.
- We also demand that the media black-out of Tehelka Tapes on televisions
in Gujarat be lifted immediately.
We appeal to the people
of Gujarat to maintain public order and peace
as they look at the evidence and demand that the Indian law enforcement and
judicial system bring to justice all those who are implicated.
