Bulandshahr gang-rape case : Minor victim moves Supreme Court against Azam Khan
The 13-year-old, who along with her mother was gang-raped by a gang of dacoits while passing through Bulandshahr in a car, also wants the case to be transferred to Delhi and has sought a court-monitored probe, along with schooling, security and rehabilitation.
On Friday, the Allahabad High Court ordered a CBI inquiry into the case observing that it was "not satisfied" with the police investigation so far.
Azam Khan, an influential Minister in the Akhilesh Yadav cabinet, kicked up a controversy after the Bulandshahr incident, saying that it could be a political conspiracy against the government.
