Homebuyers fraud case: CBI files 10th charge-sheet against builder firm, its directors
The CBI has accused them of dishonestly obtaining financial gains while causing wrongful losses to the victims.
The Supreme Court will take up the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) petition on 29 December challenging the Delhi High Court’s order suspending the life sentence awarded to former BJP leader Kuldeep Singh Sengar in the 2017 Unnao rape case.
The matter will be heard by a three-judge vacation bench led by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant.

Earlier on Friday, the CBI filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) before the apex court questioning the Delhi High Court’s 23 December order that suspended Sengar’s life sentence pending appeal and granted him bail.

Sengar was found guilty in December 2019 in the Unnao rape case and was sentenced to life imprisonment along with a fine of Rs 25 lakh. Although he has been granted bail in this case, he continues to remain behind bars as he is serving a separate 10-year jail term in another CBI case related to murder.
Survivor alleges misconduct in probe
Meanwhile, the survivor of the Unnao rape case and her mother met CBI officials in New Delhi on Saturday and submitted a complaint alleging misconduct in the investigation. They accused the investigating officer (IO) of colluding with a judge to favour the accused.
After the meeting, the survivor told reporters that she had requested an appointment with a senior CBI official but was informed that it was a holiday. She said a junior officer accepted her complaint instead. “The junior official has received my application and said that the senior official will meet on Monday,” the victim told ANI.
She further alleged that the investigating officer acted against her interests. “The complaint is that the investigating officer has wronged me. He colluded with the judge to ensure that the other party won, so that the rape victim would lose, her courage would be broken, and she would not be able to pursue the case further,” said the victim.
