Court dismisses former Delhi minister Sandeep Kumar’s plea in rape case

A special court today dismissed sacked Delhi minister Sandeep Kumar’s plea seeking direction to the police to file a status report on the probe in the rape case against him. Special Judge Poonam Chaudhry, however, gave liberty to Kumar to file the plea after some time after the police informed the court that it was awaiting sanction to prosecute the accused, as also the forensic science laboratory report.
