The burning of a train in the Indian village of Godhra in 2002 killed 59 Hindu pilgrims. Right-wing politicians blamed Muslims for the fire and it led to Indian's worst sectarian violence in years, killing about 2,000 people.

After a trial going on for almost nine years, 59 people were found guilty over the attack.
