The politician, who is serving life imprisonment in the case, was granted two weeks’ interim bail in early December due to his health, which was later extended by another month. Sengar’s plea for extension of interim bail, part of her appeal against the December 2019 trial court verdict in the rape case, is pending before the high court. He has demanded its cancellation.
