Panchkula (Har): A special NIA court had to defer its verdict that was expected to be pronounced on Monday in the 2007 Samjhauta Express blast case in which Swami Aseemanand is one of the accused after a last-minute application by a Pakistani woman.
In a surprise plea, the woman moved the anti-terror court for directions for examination of the blast eyewitnesses from Pakistan.
The court was expected to deliver the verdict in the case relating to the blast in the cross-border train in which 68 people, mostly Pakistani nationals, were killed.
Special Judge Jagdeep Singh listed the application of the Pakistani woman Rahila Wakeel for hearing on March 14.
The woman contended that her co-nationals eit-her did not receive proper summonses from the court or were denied vis-as by authorities.
