AHMEDABAD: A metropolitan court on Thursday rejected the demand made by the Narmada Bachao Andolan leader and social activist Medha Patkar for further probe by a special investigation team into the incident of assault on her at the Sabarmati Ashram in 2002.

Metropolitan magistrate A S Desai rejected the plea for further investigation after the state government submitted that Patkar appeared before the court 10 years after the incident. The application was filed at a belated stage and Patkar was never serious to pursue the case despite being summoned repeatedly by the court.
