A metropolitan magistrate's court in Ahmedabad on Wednesday reserved the order on Zakia Jaffery's plea that the Special Investigation Team's report on her complaint regarding Gujarat riots be opened and read out. Magistrate M S Bhatt heard arguments on behalf of Zakia the widow of former Congress MP Ehsan Jaffrey who was killed in the 2002 riots and the SIT at length before reserving the order for March 3.

SIT has submitted to the court the final report on Zakia's complaint alleging complicity of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, other top politicians, police officers and bureaucrats in the 2002 riots, in a sealed cover.
