Chennai, Oct 26 (UNI) Manitha Neethi Pasarai, a Muslim outfit, today demanded that Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi should be arrested and prosecuted for allegedly backing the ''perpetrators of post-Godhra carnage in that State in 2002.'' Pasarai General Secretary Yamukaideen said in a statement here that the sting operation by Tehelka had exposed that Mr Modi was the key person behind the killing of innocent Muslims in the aftermath of Godhra incident.

The Centre should immediately dismiss the Modi Government in Gujarat and impose President's rule.

''All the perpetrators, including Mr Modi, Legislator Haresh Bhatt and police, advocates and Government officials, who had abetted the crime, should be brought to book and stringent punishment should be given to them,'' he added.
