PRESS RELEASE
All India Democratic women's s Organisation (AIDWA ) condemns in strongest terms the act of raids conducted by CBI on the office and house premises of Teesta Setalvad.
In Mumbai it is shocking and highly objectionable that a large contingent of CBI has been deployed for search operations the whole day.
In a press release issued today AIDWA has stated that the real motive of such hounding of Ms Setalvad is nothing but a clear cut vendetta of Modi Govt as a revenge for her active role against the 2002 GujaratProgram. She had been relentlessly continuing the legal fight for all these years so that politically influential culprits are brought to book and punished. Moreover such act of CBI can never be justified in view of Ms Setalvad already assuring her full cooperation in any investigation into transactions and functioning of her NGO.
AIDWA calls upon all justice loving and secular forces to raise their voice against misuse of CBI for scaring a social activist into silence.
