In a historic decision the CBI court in Lucknow has today acquitted all the accused of Babri Mosque demolition after twenty eight years in its 2300 page judgement saying that the Babri Majid demotion was an act of some disgruntled n unscrupulous anti social elements committed in 1992 and was not a pre strategic or pre planned attempt but a spontaneous action of the frenzied mob. The judgement said all the evidences in the form of tape recorded or vedios etc submitted to the court, were tempered n doctored.

The leaders accused in the case had tried their level best to appeal to the protestors to exercise restraint repeatedly but of no avail.
