Antilia Bomb Scare Trial to Begin Evidence Stage on November 4
The trial for the 2021 Antilia bomb scare and the related Mansukh Hiran murder case, involving dismissed Mumbai police officer Sachin Waze and nine others, will begin its evidence phase on November 4. The special NIA court plans to examine nine prosecution witnesses, including Hiran's son, brother, and widow, whose testimonies relate to Hiran's movements before his death and allegations against Waze. The charge-sheet was filed in September 2021, citing around 200 witnesses, though the exact number to be examined remains uncertain.
