"This has prompted us to move to the Supreme Court to seek clarification that its order pertaining to Zakia's case is not only restricted to Gulberg Society case but is applicable to state-wide riots," he added.
Though the Supreme Court-appointed SIT has strongly objected the prayer of granting more time to Zakia on the ground that the apex court has not granted any stay on the proceedings of this court and hence Zakia should be asked to promptly file her protest petition.
The SIT, after investigating the complaint filed by Zakia against Narendra Modi and others, had submitted its closure report on February 8 this year, absolving all of them of any wrongdoings in post-Godhra riots where more then 1,200 people had lost their lives.
The Supreme Court in its order had told the SIT to submit its final report in the local court in Ahmedabad and given complainant Zakia liberty to file a protest petition against the closure report filed by the investigating agency.
