59 Hindus were killed in Sabarmati train carnage at Godhra by Islamists. Conflicting versions led to acquittal of 63 convicting only 31 Muslims.

The accused were charged with pulling the chain of the train at Godhra station, pelting the train with stones near Signal Faliya, throwing burning rags and petrol inside the coach, cutting the canvas of the vestibule, forcibly entering the coach and dousing it with petrol from the inside.

They were also accused of collecting 140 litres of petrol on the night of February 26, 2002, and hiding it behind a local guest house, with the intention to attack the train the next day.

The charge was that they hatched the conspiracy out of communal grudge against a particular community.

The main convicts include Haji Bilal, a former member of the Godhra Nagarpalika and Abdul Razak Kurkur, owner of Aman Guest House. Besides Maulana Umarji, who was accused of instigating the others to set the train on fire, Mohammed Kalota, a former president of the Godhra Nagarpalika, was acquitted.

    Special Public Prosecutor, Mr JM Panchal, said the motive was to target the kar sevaks who were involved in the Ayodhya movement. “Petrol was brought and the train made to stop. Electricity was then cut and there was pouring of huge quantity of petrol and thereafter it (coach S-6) was set afire,” he said.

    On acquittal of Maulvi Umarji, who was projected as the prime conspirator, Mr Panchal said the court was not convinced with the evidence against him. Other key accused acquitted include Mohammad Hussain Kalota, then the president of Godhra Municipality, Mohammad Ansari and Nanumiya Chaudhary of Gangapur, Uttar Pradesh. The accused found guilty include Haji Bilal, Abdul Razak Kurkur, Jabir Behra, Salim Zarda and Mehbub Hasan.
