New Delhi:
A local court today convicted Ariz Khan, an accused on the 2008 blasts at various courts of Delhi, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, and Uttar Pradesh, in the Batla House shootout case of the same year which he had escaped. His sentencing has been scheduled for next Monday. The encounter between the Delhi police and the accused holed up in the Okhla area of the national capital, along with several other accomplices, led to the death of one police officer and injuries to two others.
In 2013, Shazad Ahmed, who, too, had escaped the Batla House shootout with Khan, was convicted and sentenced in the Batla House case. Three of their accomplices, Atif Amin, Mohammed Saif, and Mohammed Sajid, were killed in the incident. Delhi police Inspector Mohan Chand Sharma, too, lost his life while two other officers were injured.
