No compromise with Modi govt, says Bhatt

Suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt refused to make any compromise with the Gujarat government after a local court proposed that if he went on police remand for about three hours his bail plea could be heard on Tuesday itself.

The response by Mr Bhatt, who has accused chief minister Narendra Modi of complicity in 2002 post-Godhra riots, came after sessions judge G.N. Patel made the proposal during hearing on the state government’s revision application for his remand. “I cannot compromise with those goons. Whatever wrong the government wants to do I do not care. I will tolerate it,” Mr Bhatt said in the open court.
Mr Bhatt’s lawyer Sayed said, “The court suggested to Bhatt that he should go for two or three hours remand and his bail application will be heard later in the day.” “To this suggestion, Bhatt told the judge that he would not go for any compromise on this. Bhatt said to the judge that he believes in law and let law take its own course,” Mr Sayed said. — PTI
