Supreme Court Stays Execution of Convict in 2008 Ahmedabad Serial Blasts Case
The Supreme Court has stayed the execution of Mohammad Tanvir, convicted for his role in the 2008 Ahmedabad serial bomb blasts that killed 56 people and injured over 200. The court agreed to hear his appeal challenging the Gujarat High Court's July verdict, which upheld death sentences for 38 Indian Mujahideen operatives. The Supreme Court has ordered reports on Tanvir's prison conduct, probation, and psychological evaluation within eight weeks and scheduled further hearings after 12 weeks.
