Chargesheet in Porvorim rampage case to be filed next week

PANJIM: Filing the chargesheet in the 2013 Porvorim NH 17 ruckus involving 51 Nigerians and one Ghanaian has been delayed. The chargesheet will be filed next week.

Porvorim police were expected to file the chargesheet on Thursday. However, due to technical issues the police officials decided to submit the 276-odd page chargesheet before Mapusa court next week. 
North Goa SP Umesh Gaonkar met with the Porvorim police after which the decision was reportedly taken.
Details of the criminal background of nearly a dozen of the Nigerians booked for the October 2013 incident will be made a part of the case in an attempt to strengthen the chances of getting a conviction. A majority of the accused are living in the State without valid documents like passports and visas.
