Ishrat fake encounter: CBI sends judicial request to Pakistan to establish identity of Rana, Johar

New Delhi: CBI has sent a judicial request to Pakistan seeking to establish the identity of Amjad Ali Rana and Zeeshan Johar who were killed in the Ahmedabad encounter along with 19-year-old Ishrat Jahan nearly

Searching for any clue about the identity of Rana and Johar, CBI had published an advertisement in Urdu papers of Jammu and Kashmir in July with their photographs.


CBI had promised a cash reward for anyone giving information about them.

Gujarat Police had claimed in its FIR that Johar and Rana were actually Pakistani citizens who had come to India to eliminate VIPs of the state.

CBI, which is probing the case, has been able to get detailed information about Ishrat and Javed as it included the statements of their relatives and people known to them in the charge sheet filed on July 3.

It has so far not been able to reach any conclusive point on the identity of Johar and Rana. CBI has in its charge sheet neither given any details about the antecedents of the duo nor the motive of their presence in Gujarat.

CBI is likely to file a supplementary charge sheet in the case once it is able to unravel the conspiracy which led to the encounter.
