Virbhadrsinh Samantsinh Gohil was probing the Naroda Gam massacre case from February 28, 2002 to March 7, 2002, as the preliminary investigation officer.
He came to be known by his alias name, “Bajrangi”, owing to his association with Bajrang Dal, the youth wing of VHP, for many years. He, however, has not been associated with the Bajrang Dal for many years now.
Rajya Sabha MP and senior advocate Kapil Sibal on Friday criticised the Ahmedabad court's decision to acquit all the 67 accused in the Naroda Gam case and asked whether "we should celebrate the rule of law or despair its demise".
