2006 Mumbai train blasts: Torture of accused barbaric, inhuman, says HC
Monday, 21 July 2025 ()
The Bombay High Court acquitted all accused in the train blasts case, deeming confessions extracted by the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) as inadmissible due to "barbaric and inhuman" torture. Accusations included severe physical abuse and psychological coercion, leading the court to question the validity of the confessions. The court also highlighted procedural lapses in invoking MCOCA, further undermining the prosecution's case.
