Vanzara had retired from the IPS as Deputy Inspector General (DIG) on May 31, 2014, after eight years in jail for his alleged involvement in fake encounters by Gujarat Police during Narendra Modi's government in the state.
Special CBI court judge JK Pandya said that since the government has not sanctioned their prosecution, their discharge pleas are allowed and proceedings against them will be dropped in the case.
Applications challenging discharge granted to them by trial court were devoid of merit, says HC; the court had been hearing six revision petitions filed by accused policemen seeking discharge in the 'fake' encounter case
