Former Maharashtra Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan has expressed his disappointment regarding the verdict of the court in the Dr Narendra Dabholkar murder case and claimed that right-wing outfit Sanatan Sanstha was nothing but a "terrorist organisation" who has a hand in the killing of the renowned nationalist but doesn’t have clarity yet.

Dr Dabholkar (67) was an anti-superstition campaigner who was shot dead on August 20, 2013, while on a morning walk on a bridge near the Omkareshwar temple in Pune. According to a PTI report, on Friday, a special court for UAPA cases in the city convicted and sentenced two men to life imprisonment and acquitted three in the case. The two assailants - Sachin Andure and Sharad Kalaskar – were sentenced to life imprisonment, but acquitted three others - ENT surgeon Dr Virendrasinh Tawde, Sanjeev Punalekar and Vikram Bhave - for want of evidence, reported PTI.
