The special NIA court announced it would deliver the judgment for the 2008 Malegaon blast case on July 31, citing the large volume of documents that require careful consideration.
The attack, which took the lives of six people and injured more than 100, remains a focal point of criminal justice in India. Over 300 witnesses have been examined, with some turning hostile.
Key figures in the case include Lt Col Prasad Purohit and BJP leader Pragya Thakur, who, alongside others, stand trial under UAPA and IPC provisions. Originally probed by the Maharashtra ATS, the case was transferred to the NIA in 2011.
