1984 Anti-sikh Riots
Sajjan Kumar is one of the prime accused in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. Eye-witnesses have testified how Sajjan Kumar incited mobs to kill Sikhs in the aftermath of Indira Gandhi's assassination. In 2012, the Central Bureau of Investigation prosecutor told a Delhi court that riots targeting the Sikhs had the "patronage" of Sajjan Kumar. CBI alleged that he organised anti sikh riots and he along with five others are being tried at court for killing six sikh people.
In April 2013, the Karkardooma district court in Delhi acquitted Sajjan Kumar, while convicting five others, leading to protests.
