London (PTI): British Indian Muslims on Thursday welcomed the Supreme Court's order setting a 10-day deadline for Gujarat government to constitute a special team to "inquire and investigate" into 14 cases related to the 2002 communal riots, including the Godhra train carnage.
"We welcome this move and congratulate the Supreme Court for this decision that will reinforce the beliefs of Indian Muslims and other minorities in the judicial system and rule of law," the Council of Indian Muslims (CIM) Chairman, Munaf Zeena, said in a statement.
However, "... these orders will strengthen their shaken belief and will improve the image of India on the world scene as a country where fascists, regardless of their status, cannot escape justice," the statement said.
