Mumbai, May 09: The exercise of forwarding case papers and judgement of 26/11 special court to the Bombay High Court for confirmation of death penalty imposed on terrorist Ajmal Kasab would take at least three months, special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam said.
The 1522-page judgement, proceedings of the year-long- trial, evidence tendered by witnesses and their statements on affidavits as well as the original copies of exhibits and documents tabled by prosecution would be compiled in a ‘paper book’ and sent to the High Court.
The ‘paper book’ in typed format would be forwarded by this month end and thereafter the High Court staff would get involved in printing its contents.
The entire exercise would take at least three months, Nikam told.
