Malik Granted Limited Standing at Air India Inquiry
The man acquitted of the Air India bombing has won the right to limited participation in the public inquiry into the terrorist attack.
Justice John Major has granted intervenor status to Ripudaman Singh Malik
In a brief written ruling, Major cautioned that Malik’s interventions will be limited to challenging “any evidence that directly and adversely affects his reputation.”
Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri were acquitted last year of criminal charges stemming from the downing of Air India Flight 182 by a terrorist bomb off the coast of Ireland in 1985.
