"We are clearly of the opinion that having regard to the material placed before us, it cannot be said that there has been any violation of human rights by action of the police", the NHRC said in its 30 page report on the encounter in September last year.
The action taken by police in which two persons died "is fully protected by law," said the NHRC.
NHRC today filed its enquiry report before the Delhi High Court in a sealed cover. A Bench headed by Chief Justice A P Shah took the report on record and asked the Commission to put the contents of the report on NHRC's website.
The court also directed the Commission to give copy of the report to an NGO on whose plea it had directed the enquiry.
The High Court had on May 21 asked the NHRC to complete within two months its enquiry into the controversial encounter in which two suspected Indian Mujahideen terrorists and a police officer were killed.
Encounter specialist Delhi Police Inspector M C Sharma was killed during the police action against suspected terrorists on September 19, 2008 in the aftermath of serial blasts in Batla House locality in the national capital.
The court had directed the enquiry on a plea of the NGO, Act Now For Harmony and Democracy, that questioned the police version of the encounter.
Two suspected Indian Mujahideen terrorists who were killed were identified as Atif Amin and Mohd Sajid. Two other IM suspects Mohd Saif and Zeeshan were arrested from the Batla House area.
The incident took place a week after serial blasts rocked the capital killing 26 people and injuring 13 others.

Its shame and disgusting finding the NHRC report on Batla House Encounter.Indeed, the NHRC is itself violating very human rights of deprived classes.It has prepared the report on the basis of story presented by Delhi Police only.The Commission could not bother to hear the civil rights group and even the family members of the accused and killed boys were never heard by the so called custodian of Human Rights of citizens of the country.Its is shame that a body which is supposed to act in the interest of the human rights , pronounces that an encounter did not involve human rights violation. While preparing the report in bureaucratic manner , the NHRC might forgot that Delhi Police is infamous when human rights violations of the citizens are concerned.The government must take initiative to hand over the case to CBI.
this clearly shows and will encourage police to exort money
Well.. i am deeply disappointed to see some of the muslims guys talking hatred here. I just dont understand why you guys cannot for a moment forget your religion and think like any other Indian. There are 100's of hindu's/ christians who get arrested or shot by police and none of them say that its because of their religion. You guys have obviously not lived abroad. Look at how muslim countries treat non muslims and you will thank that you are in India. And you should thank your creator that you are not in china , because then they would have already had one bullet in your head and one in your heart and charged the cost of these bullets to your family. Grow up guys and stop this bloody hatred of religions.
We need to arrest the likes of A R. Antulay, Amar Singh and Arjun Singh immediately for creating doubt about the Indian laws and police. The NGO that filed the PIL should immediately be banned and its officials put behind bars.THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO SHOW THAT INDIANS WILL NOT TOLERATE NONSENCE IN THE NAME OF 'SECULARISM' ANY MORE.
Silly, idiot Amar Singh, Where r u hiding now? You fool, wanted a CBI enquiry!!! Patriotic Indians should treat him like shit and spit on him, though sorry to be so crude. He deserves more than what I said. i need a reply from him now.
I believe its time that a greater islamic union (like the european union) is created where all the muslims move(mandatorily from all nations with appropriate compensation etc) and can live in peace.it seems they have difficlty with all other relegions.
Today is the victory of all those who oppose the divisive Muslim appeasment by fundamentalist muslim rightist congress and communal Amar Singh. May God give Shanti to the Atma of Mr. MC Sharma.
Another so called fact finding report that tells us what they want us to believe.
Are you threatening law abiding Indians of all religions, Mr Sufi ? I am sorry to hear all that shit from you. But I challenge you, if you want to take the law into your hands, go right ahead.....the law enforcement authorities will take care of you. Looks like you will leave this life with a bullet in your head. So be it, no one can convince bigoted minds who choose to be fanatically minded.Go right ahead!
The minorites believe that they have the right to challenge the laws of the nation to keep their faith. What the Prophet demanded was living according to the System of life that is the System of God because it is the only intelligent System that is available to us to manage life. Society degrades when it tries to manage life on the basis of faith because faith does not belong to the System. The present Islam that equates morality with ancient tribal practices are not the rules of God. When we give importance to such alien rules the midn cannot work properly as the basic emotion of love that is necessary for life can be had only if we respect life. This is where Islam has betrayed the Prophet. Satan is quoted in the Koran: Satan says: “I shall entice a number of your servants and lead them astray…. I shall order them to tamper with God’s creation.” (‘The Koran’ 4:118)
Mr Sufi, your buddies can cross-over to one of the other sides (West or East) if they have no trust in police.
CAN MUSLIMS TRUST INDIAN GOVERNMENT AND POLICE AND ABOVE ALL LAW. SLOWLY MUSLIMS LOOSING THE TRUST IN THESE THREE FIELDS. IN SUCH A CASE I AM AFRAID INDIAN MUSLIMS THEMSELVES WILL TAKE LAW INTO THEIR HAND.
I am not sure what is your definition when you say that muslims are loosing trust. Do not generalize the entire population of Muslims, just because you have been blinded by some burnt out ideaology or some facts that you did not consider. As an indian muslim I am proud of all the things that make us who we are. The government, the police and above all the law and the courts. The country has done far more than other countries have done to their own muslims. I am stating this because I have lived in over 5 different countries.No doubt there are crooks, crooks are everywhere and they would take advantage of every situation to make it to their own advantage, whether communal or not. Just remember Rabindra nath Tagore's poem,Where the mind is without fear and head is held high, where knowledge is free, Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls,where the clear streams of reasons have not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit. IN this land of freedom my father let me country awake.It is our choice to make or break walls,,, what is our choice????
What more remains still, for you guys to take the law in your hands, it is already prevalent everywhere in the world. Or you want to go more steps further down this dark lane? This kind of audacity is definitely not going to be in favour of the other honest law abiding Muslims and surely not as per any religious teachings, even the Islam. Think well before you open your mouth in such a manner. It is not in anyone's interest.
Now, I know why we have Indian Muslim Terrorists...People like ""SUFI"" are the root of all these devisions in our secular India. If you are not happy with Indian Govt., Police and Law, then you must leave India and never turn your face towards this land....you will be better in some country like Pakistan. Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia or even Iraq for that matter......Enjoy your freedom there
dear dimple,if u r raped,tortured,n discriminated would u still silent or would u fight for ur rights or wud u move to nepal or srilanka?
Tone of the statement looks threatening,if that was meant to be so,it is very unfortunate.I will wait for Indian muslim to reply to this gentleman.Because if you are indian citizen,you shall be impartial and hold consitutational law as highest as rest of religion do.I for one think keeping Sharia in india was first mistake to make minorities delink from india.Muslim community basically do not follow rule of law.So i see days when Indian consitution and Sharia law(AIMPLB) clash.I want leaders of india to make it clear,no religion in india is above consitution
We trust all those who condem violence/terrorism without reference to caste or creed...take the law in your hands
it just shows ur mentalityA policeman died in the encounterand you have the audacity to blame the police for fake encounter. If you are so pissed off then join ur brothers in pakistan .
Mr Sufi. A policeman died fighting terrorist and u still see a ghost. It is this mentality of muslims like u which hamper their growth. Instead of trying to integrate they try and carve out a hole for themselves to hide in. Education and a broader vision is the only solution. If muslims were ever marginalised there wuould not have been 2 muslim presidents in this country. Wake up and smell the filter cofee.
Are you nuts are what? What has this got to do with Muslims? They were a bunch of terrorists. Why are tarring the entire muslim community with stupid comments like this. If Indian law was not responsive, then there would not have been any investigation by NHRC. When the ruling is against what you like then it is biased. Mr Sufi your statements are dangerous and I do not know how IE allowed them here
So just because the result does not match with what you personally believe it is automatically against Indian Muslims?So there can no Muslims who are criminals? There are hundreds of people who are Hindus,Christians,Sikhs,Buddist and every other religion under the sun, are arrested by the police. I have never heard anyone say the government is against their religion.
