Unnao Rape Case: Supreme Court to Hear CBI Plea Against Kuldeep Sengar Bail

On this news bulletin, the focus is on the Supreme Court hearing regarding the Unnao rape case. A bench led by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant is set to hear the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) plea challenging the Delhi High Court's order granting bail to convict Kuldeep Sengar. The CBI has termed the High Court's order 'legally unsustainable', arguing that it failed to adopt a purposive interpretation of the POCSO Act. The agency also warned that releasing such an influential convict sends a 'troubling message' in cases of sexual violence. Meanwhile, the rape survivor and her mother have staged protests at Jantar Mantar seeking justice.
