CBI clean chit to Amit Shah in Ishrat Jahan encounter

CBI on Wednesday gave a clean chit to Gujarat’s former junior Home Minister and Narendra Modi’s close aide Amit Shah in the alleged fake encounter case of Ishrat Jahan and three others, saying it did not have sufficient evidence to charge sheet him.

“There is no sufficient evidence against Amit Shah. Hence CBI has not chargesheeted him,” CBI PI Vishwas Kumar Meena said in an affidavit filed before the special CBI court in Ahmadabad on Wednesday.
