I am looking in particular for a Col Srivastava who broke the Army code and lied to Lt Col Purohit and tortured him before handing him over to Kurkure for further processing.

2008 Malegaon blast case: Special Court orders inquiry against ACP Shekhar Bagde of ATS for planting evidence to implicate the accused


The special court on Saturday recorded the testimony of a retired military officer who claimed that he had seen one ATS official doing suspicious activities at Chaturvedi’s residence, days before ATS allegedly found traces of RDX at his residence.

The military official said that on November 3, 2008, he had seen an ATS officer, Baghade, doing suspicious activities at Chaturvedi’s house. The witness said he had seen a bag in his hand and he was seen doing something on the floor.

The witness said the official had requested the witness to not reveal his visit to Chaturvedi’s house to anyone. The witness also claimed that he was also threatened with false implication by another official of ATS if he revealed Baghade’s visit to Chaturvedi’s residence. The official said that he had informed his superiors about this.
