Shah drove to Jethmalani's residence here and offered his last respects to the departed soul and condolences to the bereaved family.

"Paid last respects to Shri Ram Jethmalani ji at his residence in New Delhi," he tweeted.

Jethmalani was Shah's lawyer in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh alleged fake encounter case.

Shah, who was Gujarat Home minister at the time of the incident, was chargesheeted by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the case, but the court discharged him due to lack of evidence.
