From 'kingpin of massacre' to being innocent: Rise and fall of Maya Kodnani

Gujarat High Court has acquitted former BJP minister Maya Kodnani in the infamous 2002 Naroda Patiya massacre case, while upholding the conviction of former Bajrang Dal leader Babu Bajrangi.

The 30-plus convicts in the case had challenged the SIT court's 2012 order in the high court.

Along with Kodnani, Ganpat Chhanaji, Vikram Rathod, Manubhai Maruda, Shashikant Patil, Babubhai Marvadi, Ashok Sindhi, Mukesh Rathod and Hiro Marvadi were also acquitted.
