New Delhi: The Saket district court will on Thursday examine the documents filed along with the chargesheet against the five accused in the Delhi gangrape-murder case. This after their legal counsel claimed that several documents in the chargesheet were incomplete and illegible.
Earlier on Tuesday, the Juvenile Justice Board reserved its order on the age of the minor accused in the case till January 28. On Tuesday, two school principals, former and current, of the minor accused appeared before the court. Their statements were recorded and the court reserved its order till January 28.
The accused's principal was earlier summoned by the board to help determine the exact age of the accused who claims to be 17 years old. The board, however, was not satisfied by the documents presented and had asked the principal to furnish more authentic documents. If the magistrate is not satisfied with the final documents that were presented today, they can order a bone ossification test.
Meanwhile, a number of people gathered in Jantar Mantar on Wednesday evening for a candlelight vigil to mark one month of the gruesome gangrape. People holding lit candles marched towards Parliament Street but were prevented from moving beyond Jantar Mantar.
