Sharpshooter gets 5-yr jail for plot to kill neta
The Free Press Journal|November 30, 2024
A special court in Ahmedabad under the GCTOC (Gujarat Control of Terrorism and Organised Crime Act 2015) law sentenced Irfan Shaikh, a sharpshooter, who was arrested in 2020 by the Gujarat ATS (Anti-Terrorism Squad) for conspiring to murder a political leader in Gujarat, to 5 years of imprisonment.

Special Judge and Ahmedabad District Judge K M Sojitra acquitted another accused, Sindhesh Kharade, due to lack of evidence. The case is being considered highly significant, as it involves an attempt to assassinate a political leader, and the court emphasised that the accused should be punished strictly under the law.
