Bhagwan Jha, Brother-in-law of Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, who has been implicated in 2008 Malegaon blast Case,has claimed that she is suffering from breast cancer, which is at an “advanced stage”. He also produced reports from Mumbai’s Indian Cancer Society to support his claims at a press conference. Pragya is in the custody of the Bhopal police.
Pragya Singh Thakur has been in Bhopal’s Swami Vivekananda Regional Spine Centre for the past two months, recovering from a spinal ailment, and has been seeking bail from the High Court on health grounds.
Jha claimed that the government kept the truth under wraps despite knowing that Pragya was suffering from cancer. “It wants the sadhvi to die of cancer to prevent a nationwide uproar if she is proved innocent and the theory of saffron terror falls flat,” Jha said, blaming the Centre and the ATS for Pragya’s “condition”. However, the case has been with the NIA for over a year.
In June this year, a test was conducted on Thakur in Bhopal, with the mass sample in her right breast sent to the Indian Cancer Society in Mumbai.
The medical document under the society’s letter head which was produced by Jha at the press conference states that “invasive ductal carcinoma†has been detected in the right breast.
“Doctors had treated and taken a sample of the mass in June last month when she was admitted in Bhopal. The samples were sent to the Indian Cancer Society, which finally gave its diagnosis to us this week. This news has come at a very strange time. We are worried for her health as she is already undergoing stress and acute pain due to her spinal problem. We will now provide this medical record to the High Court to expedite her bail procedure. She needs to undergo immediate surgery and also the relevant course in chemotherapy. We are willing to co-operate with the investigation at all stages, but we need to seek bail to ensure she has a safe life ahead,†Jha said.
National Investigation Agency (NIA) officials confirmed knowledge of the medical document, but added that only the court has the right to call for a verification of the diagnosis and decide on subsequent bail.
Pragya’s advocate Naveen Chomal said he moved an application in the special MCOCA court about three weeks ago for bail on medical grounds. “As the request was not granted, we have filed an application before the Bombay high court,” said Chomal.
Meanwhile Twitter Users have launched an Active Campaign #FreeSadhviPragya to get Sadhvi Pragya Thakur released from Police Custody even after 4 years. Till date, no charges could be proved against her. Lets hear what Twitter people have to say
Sadhvi Pragya is somewhat symbolic of today’s India. In the wrong hands. Tortured. Abused. Bruised. By her own protectors. Helpless. Ignored

Whereas, Sadhvi Pragya has come out clean from all 17 tests of different kinds and CBI failed to prove any allegation against her.(3/5)

The congress government is extremely suppressing Hindus like if Aurangzeb is ruling the country. Charging Sadhvi, the government helps the real culprits to escape. There is no saffron terror and that is completely imagined by congressman Mr. P. Chidambaram. Hindus are loving and dying for their land and people. They never do any brutality such against their people. May be congress people dare to do for their political survival.
Surely God will punish this congress unwanted shits in the history of the land.
First of all, Mr. P. Chidambaram must think about his winning in the last election from the Sivaganga Constituency. It is doubtful. In fact it is announced in a hurry with the intervening of the then Chief Election commissioner, who himself was not a clean handed man. The Congress party is an evil mission which destroy morality and dharma and leads the nation to a collapse in the hands of our enemies. The day will come to India and a new nation with equality, justice for all and progress to all will surely get in the future India after the end of these “dark congress ruling days”.
