Reacting to the court's order, the Unnao rape case survivor expressed satisfaction and full faith in the judiciary.
Sengar, who was convicted in the rape case and sentenced to life imprisonment, was allowed to walk out of jail after Delhi High Court suspended his sentence and granted him bail.
Sengar has already been convicted for the rape of the young woman from Unnao, who was a minor and has been awarded life imprisonment.
Sengar was convicted under the Indian Penal Code and POCSO Act for the offence of a public servant committing penetrative sexual assault against a child.
On Monday, the court had convicted Sengar for the rape of a woman in 2017 when she was a minor saying that the victim’s testimony was truthful and unblemished against a powerful person.
Meanwhile, the CBI, while terming the Unnao victim's case 'an extraordinary one', has asked for maximum punishment to be awarded to expelled BJP MLA.
The proposed new law has been named the Andhra Pradesh Disha Act Criminal Law (AP Amendment) Act, 2019 as a tribute to the veterinary doctor who was raped and murdered recently in neighbouring Telangana.
The woman was reportedly raped in Delhi's Mukherjee Nagar last year and had filed a police complaint last July, following which the accused was arrested and later released on bail on Wednesday.
This comes close on the heels of a rape survivor being burnt to death by five men in Unnao, some of whom are accused in the case.
