Nalini Sriharan and five more convicts in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case have been freed by the Supreme Court after 33 years in jail.
In May, the Supreme Court used its extraordinary powers to free a seventh convict, Perarivalan. The same order applied to the rest of the convicts, the court said.
The court also noted that the Tamil Nadu government had recommended to the Governor in 2018 that the convicts be freed.
Besides Nalini, the others jailed for the 1991 assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi were Sriharan, Santhan, Murugan, Robert Payas and RP Ravichandran.
