Central Bureau of Investigation is willing to re-examine a 1984 anti-Sikh riots case against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler. CBI told this in a reply filed before additional chief metropolitan magistrate SPS Laler in New Delhi yesterday. The move comes after one of the complainants said she has traced witnesses against the accused but needed time to ensure their safety.<br/><br/>Having cleared the Congress leader's name several times, CBI took an about turn on complainant Lakhvinder Kaur's statement that some righteous citizens had promised to provide details of the witnesses in question. <br/><br/>Kaur, who lost her husband Badal Singh in the riots, had yesterday sought to defer the hearing of the case so she could get time to provide reliable contact information regarding the witnesses quoted in the final report. CBI had earlier said that the witnesses were untraceable.
