Narayan Sai has suffered a major setback after the Gujarat High Court rejected his plea for relief in a rape case registered in Surat in 2013. The court dismissed his mercy petition and refused to stay his conviction.
Sai had approached the high court seeking a suspension of his sentence in the case. However, the bench declined to grant any relief, citing the seriousness of the offence and his conviction in the case.
The court also rejected his bail application, making it clear that no leniency would be extended given the nature of the crime. The decision reinforces the judiciary’s firm stance on serious offences such as rape.
The case dates back to 2013 when allegations of sexual assault were filed against Sai in Surat, leading to his conviction in subsequent legal proceedings.
