AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi slams 'shoddy' prosecution in Samjhauta blast case

HYDERABAD: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Wednesday said he was disappointed with the acquittal of

Swami Aseemanand

and three others in the 2007 Samjhauta Express bombing case.

"68 dead and nothing to account for them, nothing to say that justice has been done. How long is one going to hear of acquittals because of deliberately shoddy prosecutions?" the MP tweeted on Wednesday.

Sixty eight passengers, including 42 Pakistanis, were killed in the blast on Samhjhauta Express, which connects Delhi with Attari on the India-Pakistan border.

Swami Aseemanand also has a Hyderabad connect, and was in the news last year after the NIA special court acquitted him and four others in the

Mecca Masjid blast case
