Shibu Soren is not found guilty of Murder of his secretary Jha





Jharkhand Mukti Morcha chief Shibu Soren acquitted by the Delhi High court in the case relating to murder of his private secretary, Jha. The CBI had accused Soren of getting killed his personal secretary Shashinath Jha. The Delhi High Court has cleared former Union Minister and JMM leader Shibu Soren of charges of murdering his personal assistant Shashinath Jha 13 years ago. A bench comprising of Justices R S Sodhi and H R Malhotra said that the court’s judgment on November 28, 2006 was an error. “there is nothing on record to show that Jha fell into disgrace over any particular act of his which caused annoyance to Shibu,” the judges said.

“Neither is there any evidence to show as to when and where the conspiracy was hatched, if at all. The missing links are galore,” the order added. The order reads, “neither the family supports any of the wearing apparels found upon the skeleton as those belonging to Jha nor ds the postmortem supports the prosecution’s theory of Jha having been killed with two iron rod blows on his head,”. Jha was abducted and found dead in the forest of Piskamore, Ranchi.

The factors that led the case in Soren’s favour is that CBI miserably failed to prove that the dead body which found almost four year after the disappearance, as the body of Jha. Jha’s family not only disputed the CBI claims over the identification of the body but also they refused to conduct any DNA test. Further more the results of the DNA fingerprinting tests conducted at the instance of the trail court which, unambiguously, held that the skeleton was not that of Jha.

Shibu Soren could not be released from Dumka jail on Thursday because of certain technical glitches in the papers obtained from Jamtara court for his release. The division bench of the High Court today also acquitted four other people who had been held guilty of having killed Jha on November 28, 1994.

Soren is currently having one more case lodged in a Jharkhand jail in connection with a 1975 mass murder case in the state. But that is not as furious as the Jha’s case.
