Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday slammed the Uttar Pradesh government for challenging a high court order to relocate and provide employment to the family of the Hathras woman found dead after her alleged rape.
A bench of Justices Attau Rahman Masoodi and Renu Agarwal granted bail while taking into account the period Rehman has spent in jail and that Kappan and Alam have already been granted bail.
The Hathras case, as it became known both in national and international media, played out in the exact same fashion as other cases of violence against Dalits, especially Dalit women, play out across the country.
