Sanjiv Bhatt Biography

Sanjiv Bhatt is one of the most popular and richest Police Officer who was born on December 21, 1963 in Mumbai, India. According to me in spite of the circumstances, it doesn’t seem likely that a police officer would be able to make an unsubstantiated claim towards Ms. Modi, the Chief Minister of the State without a evidence. There isn’t any evidence that could prove the fact that Shri Bhatt was absent from the meeting held on 27.02.2002.

He was also accused in a custodial torture trial in 1998.

After the official release of the Amicus curiae’s report, The Times of India described Bhatt as pivot in the case against Modi. Bhatt criticised the published SIT report on the Godhra attack, claiming that the SIT was shielding Modi. Besides his deposition before NCM, Bhatt has filed an affidavit in National Commission of Minorities (NCM).In his affidavit Bhatt has asked the rights panel to initiate action against the SIT headed by R K Raghavan for incorrectly recording his statements or tweaking them to give a clean chit to Chief Minister Narendra Modi. He also alleged that certain very crucial portions of his statement, including the timings of extremely consequential meetings with the chief minister Narendra Modi on 27 February & 28 February 2002, have either been incorrectly recorded or deliberately tweaked by the SIT, possibly with the ulterior motive and intent of shielding certain powerful persons including the chief minister from legal punishment.

At a convention marking the tenth anniversary of the Godhra, Bhatt said that he is unable to see any justice for the victims of riots. Bhatt was issued summon by National Commission for Minorities along with other retired and serving police officers of Gujarat to testify the role of Modi to bring out the truth of 27 February 2002 meeting which held at Modi’s home. The summon was issued to Bhatt on the basis of a complaint filed by Niyazbibi Malek,

In the year 1996, when he was an officer in charge of Police (SP) of the Banaskantha district in 1996, he was accused of fabricating the Rajasthan- based lawyer in a drug case. The police alleged that Bhatt had knowingly filed over 40 petitions before the courts for high court in Rajasthan and Gujarat and also before the apex court in order to defer actions against the accused. The Bar association’s members have claimed that Bhatt was appointed as the Gujarat official in charge of the Gujarat government for the special appeals petition that is pending before the SC. They alleged that Bhatt uses his position with the Gujarat administration as a cover to defend himself, while using public funds to combat the wrongs he has committed.
