Supreme Court Stays Bail Of Unnao Rape Convict Kuldeep Sengar; CJI Suryakant Questions HC Order

In this news report, the Supreme Court has stayed the Delhi High Court's order suspending the sentence of former BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar in the Unnao rape case. A vacation bench headed by Chief Justice Suryakant questioned the High Court's interpretation of the POCSO Act, specifically asking how a constable can be considered a public servant while an MLA is excluded. The report highlights the relief for the Unnao rape survivor, who stated her fight continues until the convict receives the death penalty. The Supreme Court also issued a notice to Sengar on the CBI's appeal.
