Prime witness in the Bakery fire,She’s been called a ‘self-condemned liar’.
Changing stance pat,
At the drop of a hat,
Zaheera Shaikh has provoked the SC's ire.
It has been recorded on file,
The witness had turned hostile,
“She has perjured”
(The SC* adjured)
“Let her be thrown into prison for a while.”
Zaheera has said she needs time,
To figure out what was her crime.
“I had to veer,
Out of sheer fear,
I am innocent dear sirs, really I’m!”
Mumbai, 20/3/06: A sessions court on Monday allowed Zaheera Shaikh, prime witness in the Best Bakery case, to reply on March 29 to show cause notices issued to her and others for making false averments during the retrial, and extended her custody for nine days in another matter, in which the Supreme Court sentenced her to one year jail for contempt of court.
