Party General Secretary Amar Singh [Images] said the Samajwadi Party wanted a judicial probe into the Jamia Nagar encounter, in which two suspected Indian Mujahideen [Images] terrorists were killed on September 19, and unravel the truth behind the incident.

"Our party supported the government due to pressure from the minorities to keep the Bharatiya Janata Party at bay. If the judicial probe proves that those arrested in connection with the serial blasts are innocent, then we will have to rethink on the support (to the UPA)," Singh said.

His comments came after his visit to Batla House, where the encounter took place, in which Delhi police official Mohan
