In this episode of Post Mortem, the focus is on the Unnao rape case and the legal developments involving expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar. The programme traces the timeline from the 2017 crime and the custodial death of the survivor’s father to the 2019 conviction. It highlights the December 23, 2025, Delhi High Court order that suspended Sengar’s life sentence, citing that he was not a ‘public servant’ under the POCSO Act. The transcript reports that following public outrage, the Supreme Court stayed this bail order on December 29, 2025, ensuring Sengar remains in jail.
