Sengar not named in death case of Unnao victim’s father

New Delhi, August 10

A Delhi court on Saturday reserved its order on the framing of charges in the alleged assault and framing of the Unnao rape victim’s father in an Arms Act case.

District and Sessions Judge Dharmesh Sharma reserved its order on the framing of charges for August 13.

The court also heard the death case of the victim’s father who died in custody last year. However, the CBI has not made BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar and his brother accused in this case. Eight persons have been named as accused, including three police officers, but not Kuldeep Sengar. Shashi Singh, Vineet Mishra, Birendra Singh, Shailendra Singh and Ram Sharan Singh are the other accused.

On Saturday, a special hearing was conducted after seeking permission from the Delhi HC in order to complete the trial in 45 days as per the orders of the SC. The counsel appearing for the survivor told the court that the CBI has deliberately not named Sengar and his brother in the murder case of the victim’s father. — IANS
