Khetan claims he has some video recordings which casts a serious doubt on Baig's conviction.

The video shows conversations between Khetan and five prosecution witnesses.

“The witnesses stated that they were coerced and tutored into making false statements before the court....before they were to depose before the trial court, they were all kept separately for several days and tutored by the ATS personnel as to the nature of the recoveries and statements that were relied on to convict the accused in the trial,” the application alleges.

On February 13, 2010 a bomb exploded inside the bakery killing 17 persons including five foreigners and injuring 58 others.

In April this year, the sessions court in Pune awarded death penalty to Baig.
