Expose those behind Samjhauta blast probe discrepancies: Vij

Tribune News Service

Kurukshetra, July 25

After a video statement of former Simi chief Safdar Nagori surfaced in the media, Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij on Tuesday demanded a high-level probe to fix responsibility of those who allegedly released two suspected Pakistani terrorists involved in the Samjhauta Express blast in 2007.

A video of the narco-analysis interrogation of Nagori accessed by a TV news channel shows the former Simi chief admitting on tape that the Samjhauta Express blasts were carried out by those trained in Pakistan.

Vij wrote on his Facebook page that the top Congress leadership had allegedly hatched a conspiracy to blame Hindu terrorists behind the blast in which 68 persons, several of them Pakistanis, were killed near Panipat.

He demanded narco-analysis of Congress leaders and top investigators to know who was instrumental in releasing the two Pakistanis and not taking on record the revelations by Nagori in his narco test.

Vij alleged that Congress leaders from Haryana and the Centre had colluded to defame Hindus by framing term Hindu terror.

He said such people be exposed for lying and going easy on real perpetrators for a terror attack.
