On SA

I had earlier filed an affidavit before Justice Ranganath Mishra Commission of Inquiry. The original is shown to me and it bears my signature. The affidavit is taken on record and marked as Exhibit No.37/1. I say that what is stated therein is correct except that there is a mistake in para 6 of my affidavit it was not my husband but it was my husband’s brother who was dragged out. On 1.11.84 at about 10.00 or 11.00 PM when I reached the Chowk of Block No. 32, I saw white car parked there. Mr.H.K.L.Bhagat was sitting in that car. A small crowd of 10 to 15 persons near that car. Mr. H.K.L.Bhagat has enquired from them whether they had finished the job. When they replied that they had completed the job, Mr.Bhagat again asked them if any male child of sikh was left alive, then those should be killed otherwise they would one day raise again. Four or five days thereafter Mr. Bhagat had come again to the camp at Farsh Bazar. He had come with food and cloths. We refused to accept the food and cloths as he was responsible for killing Sikhs. Some persons in the camp had thrown stones at him. He was thereafter saved by the police and left that place.

I had given an evidence in a case in Kakardooma Courts. I had given evidence in respect of 1984 incident which I have mentioned in the affidavit. All those persons who have been named by me in my affidavit were accused in that criminal case.

Read over and found correct
