[humanrights-movement:2781] Accused cop seeks to turn approver in Sohrabuddin case

[Kamayani]

 In a boost to the CBI, one of the accused police officer in the Sohrabuddin
Sheikh case, N K Amin today filed an application in a lower court to become
approver and has also sought pardon in the case. The officer filed the
application under section 306 CrPC for being considered as an approver and
for grant of pardon in the 2007 case. Amin filed another application seeking
transfer from the prison, saying he faced threat to his life in Sabarmati
jail where he is currently lodged with other accused in the case. Additional
chief judicial magistrate A I Raval issued notice to the CBI on the
applications of Amin and will hear the matter tomorrow. Amin was assistant
commissioner of police (ACP), city crime branch, before being arrested in
2007, on a statement of a witness involved in the operation of abducting
Sohrabuddin and his wife Kausar bi from Andhra Pradesh. Amin's application
comes just a day after CBI arrested former Gujarat minister Amit Shah in the
case. An advocate representing Amin, Rajesh Modi said there was a threat to
his client's life from the co-accused in the case. "There is a threat to
Amin's life from other accused as all are lodged together in the Sabarmati
Central jail here.So we have decided to move an application for transfer of
Amin from Sabarmati jail," Modi said. Apart from him, police has arrested
four IPS officers and other lower-ranked officers in the case, charging them
with criminal conspiracy, murder, kidnapping and extortion.
