New Delhi: On Friday (6th Sept), the Delhi High Court denied bail to Seema Rani Khakha, the wife of suspended Delhi Government official Premoday Khakha, who is accused of repeatedly raping a minor girl and impregnating her. Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma rejected the bail plea, citing concerns that the case “strikes at the root of trust between two families” and that there is a risk of witness tampering at this stage.
