Right-wing activist Swami Aseemanand on Wednesday was acquitted, along with six others, in the 2007 Ajmer blast case by a special court here, which convicted three others.
Judge Dinesh Gupta let off Swami Aseemanand and six others, giving them "benefit of doubt".
Devendra Gupta, Bhavesh Patel and Sunil Joshi were convicted under various sections of IPC, Explosive Substances Act and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for the bomb attack, which had left three pilgrims dead and 15 others injured. Joshi was murdered in December 2007.
The quantum of sentence will be announced on 16 March, defence counsel said Jagdish Rana.
Among those acquitted were Harshad Solanki, Lokesh Sharma, Mehul Kumar, Mukesh Vasani, Bharat Bhai and Chandrashekar, he said, adding Chandrashekhar is out on bail while others are in judicial custody.
