The NIA took over the case in 2011 and filed a supplementary chargesheet against Vasani and Singh in April last year.

If there are proofs then what this agencies are doing i am unable to understand that and if they don't have anything why people are arrested and being harassed and now this allegation is really making things suspicious of a connection between NIA and congress led Central government because congress's anti RSS thinking is old very famous Mockery of Justoce

If Allegations of alleged accused are baseless, NIA has the solid proof, then why there is so much delay in trial? Investigating agencies has proof against Swami Assemanand in Samjuta Blast, then why so much delay in trial? Intelligence agencies has adequate proof against pargaya Sing and Col, Prohit in Malegaon blas case, then why so much delay in Trial? Government and inmtelligence agerncies have too much proof against extradited accused from Portugal but still the trial has to see the day-light. What's going on!!!
