CBI to Challenge Kuldeep Sengar's Bail in SC After Unnao Rape Case Sentence Suspension
- •CBI will immediately challenge the Delhi High Court's suspension of Kuldeep Sengar's life sentence and bail in the Unnao rape case in the Supreme Court.

- •Sengar remains in jail, serving a separate 10-year term for the custodial death of the rape survivor's father.
- •The Delhi High Court suspended Sengar's sentence, citing he had already served seven years and five months.
- •Victim and her mother protested the High Court's decision, leading to forceful removal by Delhi Police; Rahul Gandhi criticized the move and promised legal aid.
