A Mumbai court on Thursday acquitted 12 people who were accused in the 1992-93 Mumbai riot cases, citing lack of evidence.
Those held guilty were -- Bashir Ahmed Usman Ghani Khairullah, Zakir Hussain Noor Mohammed Shaikh, Abdul Khan, Feroze Amani Malik, Moin Querishi and Salim Rahim Shaikh.
The judge observed that although they were not part of the inner circle of the conspiracy, their participation in training camps and their consent to go to Pakistan for arms training suggested their active involvement.
