Best Bakery convictions

The trial court convicted 9 people and sentenced them to life imprisonment in the infamous Best Bakery trials. Showcause notice was issue to Zahira Sheikh for perjury because she became a hostile witness. Although the Supreme Court's intervention in the Gujarat riots has seen some progress by the criminal justice system, the victims of the Mumbai riots of 1992 are still waiting for justice. The Bihar government has also instituted a commission to probe the Bhagalpur riots of 1989.

Zahira Sheik (Best bakery case) lied, is being convicted and fined.

What happnes when others defamed Swami Ramdev's on his medicines ?

What about the press briefings of Brinda and company that made Hindus and Swami Ramdev look silly ? Isn't that defamation ? When the govt found medicines clean, how did the earlier samples have animal matter ?

What about the attack on Ayurveda, a 2000 year old knowledge ? What about the reputation of Hindus ? sants or common men ? are Hindus destined to die in bomb blasts, defamations and lies ?

What applies to Zahira Sheikh should apply to Brinda Karat and company or anyone who is proven to have lied ? or no ?

Is Zahira prosecuted just because she is a Muslim Woman ?
