Press Statement
 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:

A Travesty of Justice

The verdict of the Special CBI Court at Lucknow acquitting all 32 accused in
the Babri Masjid demolition case amounts to a travesty of justice. It took
28 long years for this verdict but not justice to be delivered.  All the top
leaders of the BJP-VHP-RSS who were present at the scene guiding the
criminal act have been found to be innocent of the charge of conspiracy to
demolish the mosque.

The Supreme Court in its Ayodhya judgment on November 8, last year had
called the demolition an egregious violation of the law. Now, the Lucknow
court has found the main perpetrators of this crime not guilty.

This verdict will blemish the image of India as a secular-democratic country
governed by the Constitution. The CBI must immediately appeal against this
judgment.
