[dropcap]A[/dropcap] Delhi court on Tuesday framed charges of against expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Sengar, his brother Atul Sengar, three Uttar Pradesh police officers and five others for falsely implicating the Unnao rape survivor's father in an Arms Act case..The survivor's father died in judicial custody on April 9, 2018..The court said the survivor's father died due to the actions of Kuldeep and others. After they planted a country-made gun on his person the prosecutrix's father was sent to judicial custody on the charge of gun possession. He died in judicial custody thereafter.."The father of the prosecutrix… was falsely implicated by planting a country-made gun on his person in pursuance of a criminal conspiracy between the Sengars and an accused police officer," noted Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ), Dharmesh Sharma..The court said the conspiracy and the father's death were to be clubbed together.."(the father) was allegedly falsely implicated, he was sent to judicial custody where he allegedly died. Whether there was intention…. it is all a matter of trial," ASJ Dharmesh Sharma said..Noting that it was "a series of acts with a larger conspiracy' to stop the prosecutrix's father from pursuing the case against the Sengar,".The ASJ ordered all the accused be tried under the Arms Act and for the alleged murder of the prosecutrix's father..Given the threat perception looming over witnesses, CBI asked for an in-camera trial of the case..On June 4, 2017, a 19-year-old complained that Sengar and others gang-raped her at the MLA's house. CBI took over the case after the prosecutrix's father died in a hospital just days after he was brutally beaten in judicial custody allegedly at the behest of Sengar..Sengar was arrested on April 13, 2018. He's been in custody since..The case has only gotten murkier. Last month, July 28, the complainant, her lawyer and two family members were hit by a speeding truck. Both the girl and lawyer are in critical condition in Delhi's AIIMS hospital. The other two family members — the girl's aunts died on the spot..During investigations, cops found a blackened license plate, which led to suspicions that the collision was not accidental. On July 29– a day after the alleged accident — UP police arrested a truck driver.
