SC orders release of Rajiv Gandhi killers

Following through its order in May directing the release of life convict A G Perarivalan in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case by invoking its powers under Article 142 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court on Friday used the extraordinary jurisdiction to extend the same to six others convicted for assassinating the former Prime Minister and ordered that they be also set free forthwith.
