30 Lawyers for Sanatan Sanstha Man Accused in Activist Govind Pansare's Murder
To defend the man accused of killing veteran Left leader Govind Pansare, a battery of nearly 30 lawyers arrived at a court in Maharashtra today. Samir Gaikwad, arrested last week for Mr Pansare's murder in February, was produced in a courtroom in Kolhapur packed with members of the rightwing group Sanatan Sanstha, to which he belongs. He was sent to custody for three days.
