Gujarat government’s plea to stop monitoring of the trial of the post-Godhra riot cases was today virtually turned down by the Supreme Court. The apex court said, it would not make much difference if monitoring goes on for a few more months. The state government submitted that monitoring of cases should come to an end as it would amount to running a parallel proceedings by the apex court when the charge sheets have been filed and trial was going on. However, a three-Judge special bench headed by Justice D K Jain ruled that monitoring of a case after filing of charge sheet is not a new phenomenon and let the monitoring continue for a few more months. The Bench however added, it would consider the state government's plea later.
