The Supreme Court today ordered 186 cases in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots be re-investigated by a new Special Investigation Team.

There have already been at least 12 inquiry commissions and panels in the 34 years since the riots. Can a fresh investigation achieve anything after 34 long years? Or has politics suppressed justice? We debate on The Buck Stops Here.
