Says some of 56 retired judges have said they neither signed nor were aware of the letter

- PREETHA NAIR @ New Delhi

SOME of the 56 retired judges, including a former Supreme Court judge, have said that they neither signed nor were aware of the statement slamming 18 judges over criticism of Union Home Minister Amit Shah's remarks regarding opposition vice presidential candidate Justice Sudershan Reddy's ruling on the Salwa Judum.

Confirming this, Reddy, in an interview to this newspaper, said that one of the purported signatories happened to be a former judge of the apex court. "The judge told me that he hadn't heard about such a letter and knew nothing about it. In fact, quite a few judges in the list haven't signed it and some of them were not even aware that such a letter is published," he said.
