A legal-affairs report summarizing the Supreme Court of India's 24 June 2022 judgment in Zakia Ahsan Jafri v. State of Gujarat, which dismissed a protest petition against the Special Investigation Team's 2012 closure report clearing Narendra Modi and 63 others of a criminal conspiracy in the 2002 Gujarat violence. The report quotes the judgment directly, including the Court's finding that no material existed even to suggest a larger conspiracy at the highest level, and the SIT's own 2012 language that the allegation Modi instructed officials to let the violence proceed was not established.

Reliability Tier2
LiveLaw is an established Indian legal-affairs news outlet read professionally by lawyers and courts, used here to relay and quote directly from a primary Supreme Court judgment and the SIT's own closure-report language rather than for a contested factual claim of its own; treated as a strong secondary tier below the court judgment itself, which this atlas does not host or paraphrase independently.
