The Supreme Court has refused to quash the charges of murder and other offences against senior Congress leader Sajjan Kumar and said the trial will continue against him in a 1984 anti-Sikh riots case. A bench comprising Justices P Sathasivam and A R Dave vacated the August 13 interim order staying the trial proceedings against him before a Delhi court. The Bench said, the trial judge is free to analyse and evaluate the charges, and the submissions to arrive at appropriate conclusion. It also disposed of the appeal filed by Kumar against a Delhi High Court order. The apex court directed the trial court to expedite the hearings of the case for its early disposal. Kumar, a former Outer Delhi MP, is facing prosecution in two cases in which he was accused of inciting a mob against Sikh community in the aftermath of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination on October 31, 1984.
